A Fort Worth area apartment complex had a homicide occur in one of it's units. One of the items to keep in mind when something like this happens is the scene cannot be immediately cleaned and sanitized. The Police Department detectives must clear the scene before it is released to the apartment complex. Sometimes the investigation can take hours or it can take months. In this case, the apartment management had to wait several months for the unit to be handed over. Depending on the number of affected areas and how the incident occurred will determine the length of time to complete the biohazard cleanup. It can be a very painstaking job. It is very important to make sure all biohazard material has been identified. Aside from a visual inspection, a black light can be extremely helpful in locating all biologic material.
