I am writing for posterity. At 62 and in marginal health there is little that I can hope or expect from these efforts, only enlightenment, I suppose. I hope that someone will do something about cronyism in whatever form, at whatever level it festers in the USA. I have nothing to gain by using my valuable time fighting cronyism in crime scene cleanup. I do know one thing for certain and this is the one truth that I have: crony crime scene cleanup companies have no right, no merit, no standing to withold a free market from the grieving public. They belong among the lowest of the low. Information from Crime Scene Cleanup dot com. Crime Scene Cleanup cronyism begins when government employees, like coroner and county administrators, take money in exchange for death scene cleanup information. Crony cleaning companies then cheat the public out of millions and millions of dollars every year. Also, the cronies represent a tiny minority among the ranks of local government employees, I am certain. I enjoy telling people about crime scene cleanup cronyism in Orange County, California. I want to make clear, too, that I have learned cronyism in crime scene cleanup across the USA is a fact of life. It is not an abberation, as best as I can tell by the telephone calls I have received over the years. How do you know about Orange County Crime Scene Cleanup Cronyism? From one angle, I own www.crimescenecleanup.com, which gives me the privilege of being a focal point for many people interested in going into this business. i receive telephone calls from around the world, not just the USA. I hear crony stories. Callers tell me that that they have an "in" with the coroner or medical examiner, depending on where they call from. These callers do not seem to realize the impropriety of cronyism. In fact, they act as if they are somehow entitled to privileged and private information. From another angle, I received one such call from a female Orange County Sheriff's Deputy about three years ago. She was looking for someone to train her daughter. Her daughter wanted to start her own business. "I know someone in the coroner's department" the mother deputy told me. "Oh," I replied. There did not seem to be any shame in her tone or attitude. Maybe she was ignorant of conflicts of interest, as I have learned many such callers are. I gather that she belived a direct link between her daugher's business asperations and county government manifested itself through her special place in the Unverse. These people do exist, I know. I have been in and among law enforcement officers for about seven years, Los Angeles and Orange County. Moving on to the distant past: Around 2002 I entered business as a crime scene cleaner in Orange County, California. This business was an add-on to other busiensses. I soon learned that jobs were hard to find. I waited six months for my first call, which came by way of Internet Marketing. In fact, that job was a suicide cleanup in Palmdale, California. It would be another three months before I received my next job, which was in Orange County, California. Then the work began to come in by way of the Internet. After a year I noticed that I received calls from people that received my 714 area code number from the Orange County Coroner's Department. My number was one of "three" given out by an employee in the corner's office. This was standard. Rarely did I lose a bid on these telephone calls. They seemed to come about every three to six weeks, and usually on holidays and weekends. Around 2005 I was approached by a young man who claimed to be in great need of work. He begged for help getting his crime scene cleanup business started. He wanted advice. I told him what I could. Oddly enough, he called me one day just as I was going to bed (I worked my other businesses at odd hours.) He wanted me to clean a death scene I went, but I was skeptical since he did not have a California license. I told him how go about getting one, but his had not arrived. Anyway, I soon learned while on the death scene that the responsible party received his telephone number from the Orange County Coroner's Department. "How could that be?" I asked Mr. Obrian. You have no license, and how could they know that you even exist? "I know someone in the coroner's office" he replied before considering the implications of what he was saying. Having a law enforcement background, I majored first in "Police Science," I was alert to the confict of interest here. (I know, it's not rocket science.) Anyway, to make a long story short, I did not clean the scene because I refused to enter. I refused to enter because there was an Orange County administrator's seal on the door, unbroken. I do not break official seals on doors, period. I learned the next day that Mr. O'brien had found another Orange County company to clean for him, which was fine with me considering the dark side of his practice. Besides, I was busy on my other projects and too tired to clean. Some months later I joined the crime scene clearners email list on Yahoo! Before I knew, strangely enough, Mr. O'Brien was slandering me. This was quite weird I thought since I had recently befriended him. "What's going on here?" I would later learn that Mr. O'Brien was involved with another county resident (possibly a county employee) in a crime scene cleanup school. "Ah," I said to myself, I had claimed that there were too many cleaning companies while writing on the cleaner's bulletin board. So Mr. O'Brien's school enterprise was at risk from my critical comments. Maybe this is why I was slandered, even though I told him how to get into business and more. Odd. That's not so short, so I will do better with what follows. Shortly after Mr. O'Brien's arrival, coroner calls stopped, completely. I would call the coroner's office and three different employees claimed that nothing had changed and that three area code 714 numbers for cleaning companies were handed out equally as needed. It became obvious to my wife and I that something had changed. I went on with life. I increased Internet marketing by hundreds of web sites and ran yellow page adds. Soon I could tell the yellow pages were worthless. After these years have passed, I have received a total of six calls that somehow were derived by callers from the Orange County coroner's office. These calls tended to come on New Year's Eve or Christmas. The last two calls came over a year ago. Since my last coroner related call, I have not cleaned in Orange County, California. Now that's saying something when you go to Yahoo! and do a search for orange county blood cleanup, orange county death cleanup, etc. It used to be the same at Google. Google appears to be favoring pay-per-click now. But how do I know something is going on? This is how I know.
