The closest most of us have ever gotten to a crime scene is by watching crime investigation shows.

But, what really goes on at a real crime scene? How do they ever clean that up?

In reality, when the already grieving families in the US were dismayed to learn that the police were not in charge of cleaning up the crime scene, Spaulding Decon was founded out of a desire to benefit needy families.

Laura Spaulding, Founder and CEO of Spaulding Decon, agreed to help with the family directly to clean up their house at that point. Laura worked as a part-time crime scene cleaner until 2005, when she quit the police department to devote her whole attention to it.
