On the first day of the two and a half day camp, investigators participate in six hours of lectures led by professors of criminal justice and crime scene specialists. Participants will learn how to perform an investigation legally and properly and how to correctly interview witnesses and interrogate suspects, he said.
"They will have to ask the right question to get the answer," he said. "The answer they receive is a function of the question."
After doing some research Bailey realized there is a tremendous interest in crime scene investigation. For a single week in July, more than 78 million people watched some form of forensic or detective based programming. Bailey said there also is a dramatic increase in college enrollment for forensic training.
The cost for the fantasy weekend is $3,000. The price includes, lodging, food, crime scene, crime scene equipment, notebooks, clothing, a badge, identification, business cards, case file notes, photographs, lab results and an evaluation portfolio, he said.
"Everyone will be able to take photos and do a crime scene sketch," he said. "They will come away with a lot of stuff to help them remember their chance to be a Hellscenes investigator."
The first Hellscenes weekend will take place Oct. 20 through 22. Each Hellscenes weekend will consist of a different mock crime scene. Bailey has contracted lodging with the Lodge and Conference Center at Geneva State Park so all participants will be at the same hotel.
"There are fantasy camps out there for people to live their dreams," he said. "That's what this is."
Bailey has plans to expand the business to North Carolina, California and Nevada. Eventually celebrities also will be brought in to be a part of the Hellscene, he said.
Participants must be willing to have a background check and must be at least 21 years old. Any background checks that show felony charges and even some misdemeanor charges will be disqualified.
Bailey said Hellscenes is "as real as it gets without calling the coroner."
