No. Many families set up access by phone through a key holder or manager. You can stay away, and the crew will call with questions about belongings.
Who cleans up murder scenes?
Specialized homicide cleaners do. Police and investigators gather evidence and then leave. After the scene is released, the owner, family or estate can book a homicide cleanup crew to remove the hazards.
