Call me any time for suicide cleanup. Suicide cleanup services include source material removal, cleaning, disinfection, and a thorough sanitization of soiled areas. I offer suicide cleanup for homes, businesses, or buildings 24/7/365.

Because I've ran Biosafe, a suicide cleanup business, and because I work alone at suicide cleanup, I've gained a lot of experience.

Also, my prices remain much lower than my competitors' suicide cleanup prices. I travel far-and-wide to offer my suicide cleanup service.Call me Eddie Evans. I have many web pages. I must advertise widely for suicide cleanup to overcome coroner department corruption in Orange County, California. Actually, I've not "overcome" this cronyism in our sheriff's department, but I do get by, somehow.

I've seen honest competitors disappear from suicide cleanup. What remains in Orange County are questionable suicide cleanup companies, like those related to our coroner's department. Then we have franchises, and me, Eddie Evans.

So I repeat myself here. I offer suicide cleanup services in many places because of coroner corruption in Orange County, California. See my Orange County Fraud and Orange County Consumer Fraud pages for details. Our coroner's employees receive kickbacks for referring victims of violence to corrupt suicide cleanup companies. This corruption has a long history. It applies most specifically to crime scene cleanup, suicide cleanup, and unattended death cleanup. Here's why .Coroner and medical examiners have a county-wide responsibility for investigating violent deaths.

They must investigate potential crime scene deaths. They must also investigate death by apparent suicide to ensure crimes did not lead to a person's death. Likewise with unattended deaths. Unattended deaths lead to decomposition quickly, so decedents must receive legally approved identification.

Near 1988 congress legislated to have bloodborne pathogen laws invoked to help protect medical workers. Medical workers were being stuck by needles contaminated by HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and other diseases common to bloodborne pathogens. With this legislation in place, Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) became the administrative body for ensuring employers followed work-place guidelines for needle-stick and other exposures to bloodborne pathogens.

We can see how this became a bonanza for those coroner's employees with public contacts. Those directly interacting with crime scene victims, suicide victims, and unattended deaths had a monopoly over information. As a result, unscrupulous coroner and medical examiner employees began their own suicide cleanup companies. Others began referring victims of crime, suicide, and unattended deaths to suicide cleanup companies for a monetary reward.

An interesting discussion arose lately about personnel selection by county coroner supervisors. It may be that new employees have a family relationship to new hires. This selection process helps to ensure retiring coroner's employees' families remain in control over suicide cleanup contacts in their future. Nepotism seems like a logical outcome to coroner fraud. I would look to Orange County, California for proof of such nepotism in suicide cleanup corruption.

These crimes in conflicts of interest went on before I entered suicide cleanup as a profession. By the way, people in suicide cleanup for a living refer to suicide cleanup as biohazard cleanup, crime scene cleanup, homicide cleanup, blood cleanup, death cleanup, and other after death cleanup services, besides suicide cleanup. Other phrases help to describe this type of trauma cleanup. Recently I added Orange County Government Corruption for residents' information. With all of this said, my battle for honesty in government will go nowhere because nobody seems to care. If people would become upset as they did in the City of Bell, then I might get somewhere.

There's plenty more to read about corruption in the after death administration in local, county governments, but I must move on for now.

Why I write about Suicide

My interest in suicide arose as a sociology student studying Emile Durkheim's book entitled, Suicide. Durkheim applied scientific methods to study suicide. Why suicide? Because suicide belongs to most if not all societies.

Suicide has variables that we can measure. We find suicide numbers and influences differ by nationality, ethnic group, religion, occupation, even seasons. What we have learned about suicide remains confusing in many ways, just the same.

Anyway, Durkheim began a scientific approach to understanding society statistically by studying suicide with a method others could replicate -- i.e., scientific method applied statistically. (See my Sociology of Crime Scene Cleanup for more on Durkheim.) So I have an academic interest in suicide, but there's much more.

As I worked at suicide cleanup for my biohazard business, Biosafe, my interest in suicide cleanup grew. My interest in suicide also grew because I changed my approach. Before, I applied a "bailiff-like" philosophy to suicide cleanup. If I looked at something written, I did not read it. I moved on. In this way I absorbed no knowledge of my workplace outside of security for my judge, jury, and court personnel.

And so I behaved while doing suicide cleanup. No personal information related to suicide victims came into my mind via suicide cleanup, at least no more than humanly possible to ignore.

I was Wasting an Opportunity to Learn and Share

Then, I thought, "I'm wasting an opportunity here. If I begin to see, I mean really see during suicide cleanup, suicide cleanup may become a classroom for my understanding. Then I have an opportunity to help others affected by suicide and suicide cleanup tasks."

"Maybe I can find some useful information," I thought to myself. "Can I see personal items without blabbing about their owner." I can see personal property and other similarities to other suicide cleanup sites.

In this way I follow a methodology similar to a sociological approach, but a sociology of suicide cleanup. Keep in mind, I'm not intruding on privacy. I'm simply making note of similar life-styles, similar problems, and similar suicide cleanup activities. All I do while performing suicide cleanup any sociologist would do as a participant observer. Sure, participation influences my perspective, but as long as I keep a sociological attitude while writing about my suicide cleanup experiences, I'm no different than someone like Durkheim studying suicide cleanup.

I must note something of value to those interested in recognizing suicidal behavior and stopping suicides. For years I ignored personal items and property during suicide cleanup. I cleaned it, but gave it no thought. This I called being "professional." I still have a bailiff-like attitude toward a suicide cleanup requires an impersonal approach. But, bringing a scientific attitude to suicide cleanup for a study of suicide keeps me well within Durkheim's intent and methodology.

I make a point of experimenting and testing in small areas. In this way I find new and better ways to complete suicide cleanup jobs. Testing for cleaning goes way back in professional cleaning. I apply it to suicide cleanup just like I would apply it to carpet cleaning. Now, I take this same approach to suicide cleanup and apply it to studying suicide. I mean, suicide cleanup now gives me information to write down.

What I find of interest during suicide cleanup becomes information for suicide studies. Still, every suicide cleanup task remains anonymous. No client's personal information may enter my suicide studies. I allow myself to write stories based on what I observe, in general, during suicide cleanup. I allow myself to re-write stories to share after suicide cleanup. It happens that some clients need to share their thoughts and feelings. So I simply listen and occasionally give feedback.

No personal information will ever see light of day, since I don't collect it, but I do note it. It hasn't always been so. What does become part of my suicide cleanup studies becomes anonymous. Even details become blurred for client's privacy. What does follow from their suicide scene becomes something of use by those suffering from a suicide victim's loss. Or, information about suicide helps to inform those experiencing suicidal ideation. Then there's those with a need to help someone considering suicide.

Perhaps what I share can help. I do know that my academic and suicide cleanup experience with suicide has helped to inform family survivors of suicide. They come to feel less singled out by a horrific incident depriving them of a life-long relationship.

So now, what I meant to write in a few lines has become a bit too long. I meant to write about privacy for suicide cleanup clients and experiencing suicide cleanup as a learning process for others' sake. Now I've written hundreds of words about my suicide cleanup approach to learning. I'm motivated to help share what I can from suicide cleanup with families and here.

Symbolic Interaction

Symbols mean something. They need not have a place in our external world, like a flag or religious icon. We have an ability to internalize these symbols as objects. We have an ability to act upon our and other's meaning for these objects. These powerful abilities help to make us human.When we look to language we find an even more powerful human invention.

Language, words we use in patterns and meaningful structures (subject-verb-object sentences) give us an ability to carry a past, present, and future around in our heads. These abstract symbols give humanity an immeasurable power over nature, including our human condition. Consider calculus, for one.

Think of all our trillions of words used in language for manipulating nature and humanity. How many of these words came to lead us to suicide, self-destruction of our own internalized meanings of our externalized environments?Ideas like these come to my mind during suicide cleanup. While removing blood and other potentially infectious materials from homes, businesses, and other places, these thoughts come to mind.

I ask myself, "How might we alter external environments to help others control their suicidal thoughts?". No other type of professional after death cleanup produces such meaningful thoughts for me. Homicide cleanup comes closest, but even here a major element present in suicide cleanup does not exist, manipulation of a self to self-destruction, suicide .Nevertheless, they have meaning.

Here's a couple of examples: Words come to stand as symbols for patterns of life, like freedom, liberty, and due process. Imagine carrying the power of these ideas in the human mind as part of history, part of the present, and most spectacularly, as objects for projecting into the future.

We have a power through symbolic interactions to project our past and present into a future, thanks to our external environment internalized into our internal environment, our minds in this case.

Elsewhere I write about the symbolic interactionism of George Herbert Mead and how it comes to influence our approach to understanding suicide today. George Herbert Mead never wrote about suicide or suicide cleanup, for that matter, but he did create a way to construct symbolic interactionism. As a result, we have a social psychology today based on Mead's theories of the significant symbol. Some of which I use to write about suicide and suicide cleanup.

In a sense, this way of seeing our world looks similar to an ecological relationship where internal and external relations exist in the struggle for survival, a natural objectivity to overcome participant observation in suicide cleanup studies. To repeat myself, our external world, our objective circumstances, influence our perception of the world, of course. Our perception of the world will influence those objective circumstances.

For example, we react to them and, in doing so, act upon them. Example: While walking a child along a sidewalk, we perceive this child walking too near the curve and street. We interpret a threat to this child. We react with this symbols: Stop! Move away from the curve.We know a risk increases when children walk near a street, so we react accordingly.

Stop signifies our life-saving interaction here. Its meaning for symbolic interactionism is in the act it leads our child to follow. Likewise, its meaning is in what we understood from our past and present "stop" meant for yourself and our child. This influence over another's act is what I call a "dialectic of the act," as Mead did. For those readers with an interest in schools of thought, this symbolic interactionism is a radical empiricism.

Compare symbolic interactionism to a cognitive psychology and we find a minor relationship between a meaning in words and actions followed from their meaning. There's not much more for a symbolic interactionist approach to cognitive psychology or cognitive therapy. I cite these concerns for clarifying a place to find symbolic interactionism in the world of theory, psychology, and understanding.If readers wish to call what I've written about symbolic interactionism an epistemological theory, then I would agree.

"Security" became a very big word on September 11, 2010. The truth is that security has always been a major issue with human beings. Human existence is characterized by uncertainty and insecurity. At times these very conditions lead to suicide.

Ultimately, we must accept responsibility for our actions because of the choices we've made. It is the person who makes choices, not social circumstances. We must become responsible because this is the price we pay for choice.

Note that existentialism rejects deterministic approaches to deny responsibility for one's own decisions and actions. We all make choices within a context. Social influences give guidance to our decisions and choices, but ultimately it is the whole person making choice. We're born into our world as a biological bundle of potentiality.

Our birth process creates pain and anxiety for each baby. Thrown into a world of cold hard surfaces, we loose our once warm, soothing environment. A baby's new world begins to act upon it. As gravity begins pushing down on it, a gross departure from its once weightless existence, its once oceanic being enters an earthly existence of conflict between sensory stimulation and responses. Stimulus-response to new sounds, temperatures, and touch (or lack thereof - - contact comfort and its opposite, contact deprivation). serve to shape our bodies and mind.

Before long a dialectic begins to exist between a baby's internal being and its exceptional world. We might say that as infants learn a name and discover this name applies to their external and internal world, they develop a self (There's someone in here talking back to me), but this takes well over 7 years. Now they begin a journey of self creation to decisions and confrontations.

Soon we make choices and decisions. These create consequences. Choices follow in the context of decisions made in an external environment, in part under our control, and otherwise out of our control. Before long our perspectives become more nuance.

Choices offer more than simple black and white decision making. Learning to learn comes to serve those with this internationality toward their world. Before long an intent to learn serves the learner for manipulating both their internal and external environments.

For example, good students become better students as they receive rewards for their learning skills. Like a snowball rolling downhill, these students grow into their learning environment earning rewarding experiences. As a consequence they come to control their internal environment, their self and learning.

Learning to search for more choices begins a long learning process to quick rewards later life, given an adequate external environment.

Patterns begin to arise among choices and self forms its identity daily as self grows. We call "correct" choices "intelligence" when done quickly and accurately. When done slowly and randomly, we call this behavior "challenged." Choices made in one context may seem appropriate, while in another context become inappropriate.

During suicide cleanup I see results from a lifetime of "challenged" decision making and incorrect choices. Many times, in my opinion, 99% of suicides might have been put off for a better outcome. Unfortunately, suicide victims do not choose to put off their suicide for the sake of honor, shame, poverty, drugs, alcohol, and poor self-esteem, and more.

Poor self-esteem has its origins in poor decision making when it comes to choices, which I see so often. My writing seeks to get to the context of a phenomenological-ontological moment of understanding suicide. This understanding has its motivation in the many suicide cleanup jobs I've performed in many places.

Cleaning tells me something else might have transpired to save these suicide victims. Suicide Help telephone lines tend to help some suicide victims make new and better choices, although not very often. These calls do help by giving others time to intervene.

Unfortunately, once a Lake Arrowhead suicidal person has made that final decision, they come to believe there are no options for them. From individuals toting guns and new liquor stores to rob for money and drugs, to individuals out of control in their homes to committing suicide, conflicts and violence may be explained.

Conflict in Lake Arrowhead

We all know what conflict means. It means that tension arises between two or more people, often enough. It may also mean an internal tension arises. Conflict may occur at home, on the road, or in the workplace. Conflicts occur in schools, playgrounds, in classrooms, and more.

Often as not, patriarchal relationships involves conflict. This means that females must in Lake Arrowhead must bend to male values and practices. Patriarchy does indeed set the tone and the rules for behavior. Internally and externally decisions and choice make us who we become.

It seems that we ignore terminal violence against innocent people until it's too late. And then after the fact, we begin to ask questions. "How does this sort of behavior enter our lives?" To my way of seeing things, there are a number of ways to explain suicide. Here I'll list a few.

In no way are these ideas final and in no way do they reflect an absolute truth. I do have some ideas worth sharing. It doesn't matter if our perspectives focus from a lens shaded by a demonic forces in our universe, or an evolutionary, "blood-in-tooth-and-claw" struggle for existence.

Conflict resides internally and externally for each of us. Sometimes I enjoy looking at these ideas defined in existentialism. Although no longer a popular philosophy to read, it still offers explanations and useful ideas. I suppose one day we'll see these ideas come back into fashion. Meanwhile I do my best to explain how I see existentialism in suicide cleanup. I believe my suicide cleanup experience has lead to an understanding of suicide and violent crime against others.

No one is born into a vacuum. Everyone has influences upon their physical growth, and upon their mental makeup. For certain, every human being has their own perspective of the world and they have their own social world to live within and to gain their experience. A Kennedy, Rockefeller, or whomever would have a protected life.

Our experience in our social world helps to shape our perspective, and in some ways our perspective does help to influence our social world.
