Mop Men
Mop Men: Inside the World of Crime Scene Cleaners | Alan Emmins
7 posts | 3 read | 7 to read
Neal Smither doesn't hide his work. The side of his van reads: "Crime Scene Cleaners: Homicides, Suicides and Accidental Death." Whenever a hotel guest permanently checks out, the cops finish an investigation, or an accidental death is reported, Smither's crew pick up the pieces after the police cruisers and ambulances have left. Alan Emmins offers a glimpse at this little-known aspect of America's most gruesome deaths. Filled with details as fascinating as they are gory, Mop Men examines not just the public fascination with murder but also how a self-made success like Smither can make a fortune just by praying for death.

Death stops for no one, and if you‘re dealing with a death clean up, there‘s one dude you need to call. Neal Smither. He will have a crew out before you know it.

Neal first came to my attention thru @Meredith3 on IG. His account is crimescenecleaners and trust me, it‘s not for those with a weak stomach.

I also watched a documentary about him on YouTube and was fascinated by his blunt attitude. #timbittunes

Mehso-so

Some parts were fascinating, even funny, but the author didn't have enough material for a book about just crime scene cleaners, so it's padded with tangents.

If I were to one day find myself dead and splattered against a wall, I would want it to be Neal who came to scrape me up, and if not Neal, someone very much like him. "Don't cry for me, crime scene cleaner,"' just do a really good job. #death #crime #forensics

"The past two days have yielded a zero body count." He sounds so frustrated.
