Police in Moscow, Idaho, say they're sending in a cleaning crew to the house where four University of Idaho students were Mysteriously murdered.

"Starting Friday morning we're going to be bringing in a professional cleaning crew to go to the residence," Moscow Police Chief James Fry said in a video statement Thursday. "Part of the reason we're doing that is because of the biohazards, as well as chemicals that were used during the investigation."

It brings the U.S. closer to the European Union and California, which moved ahead earlier with corporate climate disclosure rules. The rule passed 3-2, with three Democratic commissioners supporting it and two Republicans opposed.
