I watched this show yesterday and there was a guy and his wife looking to buy a home on the Northshore of lake Pontchartrain. The guy said he and his wife had grown wealthy due to a crime scene clean up business they started. This guy said he was dirt poor prior to this and he had a budget of 2.5 mil to spend on a new house. Is there that kind of money in crime scene cleanup???

It ain't cheap and I can assure you, it's not something you want to do yourself. It's probably even covered under Homeowner's Insurance.

Well I guess if there ever was a good profitable place to clean up crime scenes it would be south of the lake.

Yes, yes there is. Not many people can handle that kind of gore on a daily basis.

They charge a ton of money.

A neighbor had a gun shot suicide in the house years back and it was like $2500 to clean up the one room. It took them an hour tops.

Yes. They have to have all kinds of certifications, meet EPA regs, etc. and its mostly insurance paid. Its a lot more involved than "mopping up blood." Think suicides when no one discovered the body for a few weeks, in the summertime, for example.

a family friend's husband used to work in the military in that field. He had to quit after cleaning and salvaging a flight that had 20+ kids on it. I can't even imagine

I know those folks, their business is xtreme cleaners. They did a viewing party at my restaurant for the show. The entire thing is hogwash. They were never gonna buy any of those houses.

They are good folks and work hard. He's from Deleware or someplace and has a branch of the company up there.
