Prior to March 1st John Stephens, a landlord of a multi-unit apartment complex receives a notice from one of his tenants, named Robert, that Robert wishes to exercise his option to terminate the lease at the end of his lease term on March 31. As thirty-day notice is all that is required under the provisions of the lease, Robert satisfies the requisite notice requirement. Expecting him to move out as indicated, Stephens places ads for the upcoming vacancy and interviews several prospective tenants. After a series of interviews and chances to show the apartment, one of the applicants comes in and signs a lease and plans to move in by April the 5th. Stephens contacts Robert and says that he needs to do a walkthrough before the 31st to see if any of the apartment was damaged and then determine how much of the security deposit should be returned to Robert, if any.

When Stephens does not hear back from Robert by the 29th of March, he goes over and knocks on Robert’s door but gets no answer. He returns to his office and calls Robert but no one picks up. He notices Robert’s car is in the parking lot. Finally on the 31st getting nervous that he has insufficient time to get the unit ready for the incoming tenant, he gets the custodian to unlock the door. Before the door is even completely opened, Stephens can tell that an acrid smell permeates the air. When he walks in, he sees blood everywhere and a severely mutilated corpse. Lying beside the corpse is a shotgun. Robert has apparently committed suicide.

Stephens feels sick as does his custodian. After calling the police, he wonders how he is going to get the unit ready for the new tenant coming in on the 5th. That’s when he decides to contact a suicide scene cleaner company. This company which also does accident scene cleanups, crime scene cleanups, homicide scene cleanups, meth lab cleanups, odor removal cleanups and other death scene cleanups is at the unit later that day. They assess the damage, consult with police, begin disposing of loose tissue and scouring the flooring, carpet and drapes to eliminate all the blood and then use additional solvents to sanitize the apartment. Finally they use some sprays and chemicals to remove the odor completely. By the end of the day, Stephens can worry about removing the furniture and other personal property of the deceased. Before the 5th, the apartment is ready for the new tenants. Stephens feels horrible about the incident but is thankful that he had the option of bringing in the suicide scene cleaner company.
