Behind The Crime Scene Tape pulls back the curtain on the work that begins after the chaos — the police response, the investigation, the crime, and the real-world consequences left behind. Hosted by Andrew P. Yurchuck, Owner and CEO of Bio-Clean of New Jersey, Bio-Clean of Florida, and Classic Cleaning, the podcast draws from decades of real-world experience. From biohazard and trauma cleanup to leadership, hard decisions, and accountability, these are conversations from the side of the line most never cross. Produced and narrated by Kevin Bicking Jr.
The Man Who Helped Build the Crime Scene Cleaning Industry | Don McNulty | Episode 10
In the often-overlooked world of crime scene cleaning, the work is about far more than cleaning. It requires compassion, professionalism, discretion, and a deep understanding of trauma.
In this episode of Behind the Crime Scene Tape, Kevin from Bio-Clean of New Jersey sits down with industry pioneer Don McNulty to discuss how crime scene cleaning evolved into the profession that it is today. Don shares how he got started, the challenges of building a company in an industry that barely existed, his work with the American Bio-Recovery Association, and the lessons he’s learned after decades of helping families through some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
This conversation goes beyond the technical side of the job. We talk about the emotional toll of the work, how the industry has changed over the years, the importance of treating every family with dignity and respect, and why, in Don’s words, “No one should be victimized twice.”
Whether you’re a client in need, part of the restoration industry, interested in true stories from behind the scenes, or simply curious about the people who perform this essential work, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
Topics discussed:
How Don McNulty, a legend in the bio-hazard cleaning business got started in crime scene cleaning. Building one of the industry’s earliest bio recovery companies.
The evolution of crime scene cleaning and trauma restoration.
Working with the American Bio-Recovery Association and advancing industry standards.
