Motivation for Orange County Employee Corruption
OSHA regulations inadvertently created a gold mine for coroner's employees across the United States. HIV and other bloodborne pathogens placed US labor at risk. So now more stringent work standards in the work place became available. Only people with bloodborne pathogen training could legally cleanup up blood for profit.
As a result, a multimillion dollar biohazard cleaning industry grew. Because coroner, medical examiner, and county administrator technicians handle county death administration, they cashed in, especially in Orange County, California. As public predators, they share a risk-free deriviative market. Unidentified deaths guarantee someone will visit their deceptive web, sooner-or-later. Someone will also need a professional death cleanup technician. It's easy money for county employee theives. Not even their coworkers know.
Prior to bloodborne pathogen legislation, little incentive existed for county employees to refer cleaning victims of crime scenes, suicides, and unattended deaths. After the force of law became available, hundreds of millions of dollars entered the new cleaning industry via homeowner's and business insurance.
As a result county employees now had access to an income worth ten times their civil servant income. Most important, the risk of exposure remained nearly non-existent, until my Internet marketing campaign exposed death administration cronyism. (County cronies need not worry, they remain quite safe in their corruption. I'll explain why another time.)

Indications
A high Internet marketing footprint returns few or no local calls for cleaning service.
I repeat myself below for a reason.
A Disconnect
Corrupt county employees direct family victims to corrupt cleaning companies. As a result, victims do not reach the Internet or phone books.
As a result survivors pay inflated cleaning prices to corrupt companies; corrupt county employees then receive kickbacks. County employees may own the cleaning company referred to. Corrupt employees and corrupt companies gouge insurance companies as well as family victims.
If those in need of an Orange County crime scene cleanup company made it to the Internet, they would find my business and others. They would pay less. This is consumer fraud. TOP
How Our Local Government Commits Consumer Fraud
We need to ask the critical question about Orange County, "Why do the county's homicide, suicide, and unattended death" survivors not use the Internet to find professional crime scene cleanup help? They obviously do not.
Visit this page and its links and find out for yourself. Scroll down the page and pretend these web sites belong to many companies, not my company. We would think that grieving families would find their way to one of these web sites, but not so.
Explanation
A high density population with Internet connections has a propensity to use the Internet for shopping, given the move from paper to Internet information. Without intervention between consumers and the Internet, a high population returns a proportional representation of relevant Internet related calls, we should expect. After all, we do not find crime scene cleanup companies in malls or on Main Street.
A low density population with poor Internet connections will return a low, proportional representation of relevant web site calls, we should expect. We expect a higher number of calls from urban areas than rural areas.
A high Yellow Page marketing share returns few or no local calls for cleaning service, my marketing experience revealed.
So where do consumers of crime scene cleaning find help in Orange County?
My Explanation
Multiple death scenes come with high price tags and crony employees reserve these for friends, crony companies, or their own company. Otherwise, I would receive offers to bid from property owners and victims.
Explanation One
A three-car garage often tips off coroner's employees that the death scene housed someone with homeowner's insurance. This property becomes a low risk, high profit referral or property to clean for insurance money and insurance fraud possibilities.
Explanation Two
When crony employees have face-to-face contact with the decedent's family members, the illicit information changes hands. The victim, family members of the decedent, have no idea other cleaning companies do the same work for less.
How many corrupt Orange County employees?
The number of crony employees working in any county government department must remain a fraction of the employee population. The more employees aware of cronyism, the greater the risk of exposure. The more employees connected to crony dealings, the less money for all.
However, it is the case that county employees will "circle the wagons" when an imagined threat from outside their cubicle circle threatens the status-quo.
Also, new employees are at risk of intimidation by cronies with seniority, rank, and privilege. Older employees go-along-to-get-along. Older crony employees become supervisors. Now employees with higher morals and higher ethics become a threat and at risk of reprisals from above.
For those employees wishing to do the right thing, whistle blowing returns few rewards and much ridicule in some circumstances. I worked for Orange County for 11 years and I know about this particular feature of county employment all too well.
In Orange County whistle blowers become "rats" in the midst of those they expose because few employees receive termination notices. Small groups emerge with agendas of their own, resulting in subtle power plays against the unsuspecting new comers and resolute. TOP
No risk attaches to cronyism in the coroner's office, the deputy coroner once advised me: "If you think someone would get fired over this you're wrong," or something to this effect.
Consequences for Victimized Victims
At times I charge half and even a quarter as much as my competitors. This includes traveling far distances to clean. So the public loses again because of cronyism. Imagine paying five-thousand dollars to have a suicide cleaned up when another company would have done the same work for nine-hundred dollars.
God help the tax payers because the county will not.
Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you.

Addendum:
I should have added the quest to become heroic. Maybe these pukes want to become heroic in the family and peers' eyes. Maybe they think they can steal their way to a heroic afterlife by cheating victims of violence.
