Crime Scene Cleaners
Smither started his company after being inspired by a scene from the film Pulp Fiction. At the time, there were very few businesses equipped to clean the aftermath of murders, suicides and decomposing bodies; the responsibility of clean up would fall on the victims family. The business originally appeared on 2003 Insomniac with Dave Attell's Oakland episode.
