La Feria Murder Scene Cleanup: Common Questions Answered
What happens to belongings and keepsakes?
Crews set personal items aside and clean what can be saved. Items soaked with fluids may have to go. The team tells you what it finds, so you decide what matters.
What does the Texas program pay for?
It covers professional cleaning services and supplies, biohazard removal and hazardous waste disposal fees, within the limit. Structural repairs, restoration and replacing stolen property are not covered. Businesses and organizations cannot apply.
Who cleans up after a homicide?
Not the police or the medical examiner. They investigate and release the scene. Cleanup is a separate job for professional biohazard crews, hired by the property owner, a family member or a landlord.
Is the family expected to clean the scene?
No, and it is not advised. Cleanup involves health risks and can be hard emotionally. Professional crews handle it so the family does not have to see or touch the affected area.
How do I choose a homicide cleanup company?
Ask what training the crew has, how waste is disposed of, what records you get and how privacy is protected. A good company explains each step in plain words and answers questions before work starts.
How do I apply to the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program?
A victim or a claimant, such as a family member or representative, can apply. The crime must be reported to law enforcement, and the application is due within three years unless there is good cause. Call (800) 983-9933.
