What to know in Goodlettsville
A crime scene in Goodlettsville may be a home in a quiet subdivision, a business near the Rivergate Mall area or along Long Hollow Pike, or a vehicle left at a lot near the interstate. Responsibility can rest with local police or with county authorities on either side of the Davidson-Sumner line, and if someone died, removal of the body needs the medical examiner's authorization. We wait for that release; evidence collection is never part of our job.
After release, we remove blood and contaminated materials, clean fingerprint powder, address tear gas or pepper spray residue where it was used, and disinfect. A victim or relative whose residence was the scene of certain crimes may be eligible for up to $3,000 in cleanup reimbursement from Tennessee's Criminal Injuries Compensation program, which acts as a payer of last resort.
