She was inside the Murdaugh family's world for over fifteen years. She cleaned their homes, ran their errands, and became part of their inner circle. And on June 7th, 2021, she was one of the last people to see Alex Murdaugh before his wife Maggie and son Paul were shot to death at the family's Moselle property. Now, in this exclusive full-length interview, Blanca Simpson holds nothing back. She reveals who Maggie and Paul really were behind closed doors — not the wealthy elites the media portrayed, but a down-to-earth mother and a son who used to hide Blanca's cleaning supplies just to make her laugh. She shares what Maggie confided to her weeks before the murders — a thirty million dollar lawsuit and a husband who kept her in the dark. And she walks us through the morning of June 7th, when she fixed Alex's collar as he rushed out the door for the last time. But that's just the beginning. Blanca describes arriving at the Moselle house twelve hours after the murders. The pajamas laid out wrong. The wedding ring under Maggie's car seat. The beach towel that proved Alex was in the laundry room. And the moment Alex came to her, pacing and disheveled, trying to coach her on what shirt he was wearing. She also reveals what happened when she tried to help SLED investigators — and how they told her she was "obsessing" and needed professional help. When I ask her directly if she believes Alex Murdaugh pulled the trigger, she doesn't hesitate: "I do. I do." This is the complete, uncut interview — nearly two hours with the woman who saw everything from the inside. Blanca Simpson's book is available now — link below. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughMurders #BlancaSimpson #MurdaughTrial #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #MurdaughHousekeeper #TrueCrime #MurdaughFamily #FullInterview Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In Part Three of our exclusive interview, the Murdaugh family's longtime housekeeper, Blanca Simpson, reveals the details she says SLED investigators never wanted to hear — details she believes could change the timeline of the murders at Moselle. Blanca tells us she saw a white Ford F-150 on the property the day of the killings. She assumed it was Paul's, but Paul's truck was in the shop. She also saw a tractor with a front-end bucket moving across the old landing strip toward the back fields — a piece of equipment capable of digging and clearing an area out of sight. When she tried to share her concerns with SLED, she was told she was “obsessing” and needed “professional help.” In this episode, we break down Blanca's full account: the unexplained truck, the tractor activity, the multiple access points on the property, and her belief that someone may have been preparing a disposal site for evidence long before law enforcement knew a crime had occurred. Whether her theory is right or wrong, the dismissal of her observations raises serious questions about the investigation. Then, in breaking news, we turn to the other major development in the Murdaugh saga: Becky Hill — the now-disgraced Colleton County Clerk of Court — pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice, perjury, and misconduct in office. She received probation, not jail time. Hill oversaw Alex Murdaugh's 2023 murder trial and was accused of influencing jurors while pursuing a book deal. Her guilty plea confirms she lied under oath in a hearing about whether Murdaugh deserved a new trial. The South Carolina Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in his appeal on February 11, 2026 — and today's plea adds a seismic new chapter. This episode connects the ignored red flags at Moselle with the courtroom corruption now admitted on the record. #MurdaughMurders #BlancaSimpson #BeckyHill #AlexMurdaugh #SLED #TrueCrimeNews #Moselle #CourtroomUpdates #SouthCarolinaJustice #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

After fifteen years inside the Murdaugh family's world, after walking through that house twelve hours after the murders, after being dismissed by investigators and watching the trial unfold — Blanca Simpson has reached her own conclusion. "Do you think Alex Murdaugh pulled the trigger?" "I do. I do." In the fifth and final part of this exclusive interview series, the Murdaugh family's longtime housekeeper shares her complete theory about what happened on June 7th, 2021. She believes "Plan A" involved luring someone else to the property — possibly Chris Rowe — but when that fell through, Alex pivoted to "Plan B": committing the murders himself and blaming the kids from the boat crash. Blanca explains the motive as she sees it. The motion to compel was scheduled for that Thursday. Alex's financial crimes were about to be exposed. With Maggie gone, he would inherit all the properties in her name — enough to cover his tracks and make the stolen money disappear. But beyond the theory, this segment is deeply personal. Blanca reflects on watching Alex's sentencing and seeing no remorse — only arrogance. She talks about feeling blamed and deflected upon during the investigation. She reveals that she no longer has any contact with Buster, and she understands why. And she shares an update on Bubba, the family dog she now cares for — blind, diabetic, but thriving. When I ask if Alex deserves a new trial, her answer is complicated. She believes he got a fair trial. But she also believes in the rule of law — even for people she's convinced are guilty. This is the conclusion of an extraordinary interview with someone who saw it all from the inside. Blanca Simpson's book is available now. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughVerdict #MurdaughTrial #BlancaSimpson #MurdaughMurders #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #TrueCrime #MurdaughGuilty #Justice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The former South Carolina court clerk tied to the trial of Alex Murdaugh has pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice, perjury, and misconduct in office for leaking sealed evidence and promoting a book about the case. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Becky Hill, the former Colleton County Clerk of Court who oversaw Alex Murdaugh's murder trial, pleaded guilty today to obstruction of justice, perjury, and two counts of misconduct in office. She received probation and walked out of court without serving any jail time. Hill was in charge of managing the jury, handling exhibits, and assisting the judge during Murdaugh's six-week trial in 2023. His defense team has alleged she tampered with jurors to secure a guilty verdict — a verdict they say she needed to cash in on a book deal. Today's guilty plea confirms Hill lied under oath during a January 2024 hearing about whether Murdaugh deserved a new trial.

Becky Hill, the former Colleton County Clerk of Court who oversaw Alex Murdaugh's murder trial, pleaded guilty today to obstruction of justice, perjury, and two counts of misconduct in office. She received probation and walked out of court without serving any jail time. Hill was in charge of managing the jury, handling exhibits, and assisting the judge during Murdaugh's six-week trial in 2023. His defense team has alleged she tampered with jurors to secure a guilty verdict — a verdict they say she needed to cash in on a book deal. Today's guilty plea confirms Hill lied under oath during a January 2024 hearing about whether Murdaugh deserved a new trial.

For over fifteen years, Blanca Simpson worked inside the Murdaugh family's world. She cleaned their homes. She ran their errands. She watched their kids grow up. And she saw a side of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh that the media never showed you. In this exclusive interview — part one of a five-part series — Blanca takes us back to the very beginning. How she first met Alex Murdaugh in the late 1990s while helping a friend with a legal case. How a chance encounter at a Pizza Hut parking lot led to years of translation work for his law firm. And how she eventually became the trusted housekeeper for one of the most powerful families in the South Carolina Lowcountry. But more importantly, Blanca sets the record straight on who Maggie and Paul really were. Maggie wasn't the fur-coat-wearing snob the tabloids made her out to be — she shopped at local mom-and-pop stores and made friends everywhere she went. And Paul? He was a little clown who used to hide Blanca's cleaning supplies just to mess with her. This is the Murdaugh family before the boat crash. Before the lawsuits. Before the murders. A family that, by all appearances, had it all — money, power, respect, and a tight-knit bond that Blanca found genuinely attractive. But as we'll learn in the coming segments, that picture was about to shatter. If you're new to this case or you've followed every twist and turn, this interview offers a perspective you haven't heard — from someone who was actually there, inside the house, part of the family's daily life. Part 2 drops soon. Make sure you're subscribed and hit the bell so you don't miss it. Blanca Simpson's book is available now — link in the description. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #MurdaughMurders #BlancaSimpson #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #MurdaughHousekeeper #TrueCrime #SouthCarolina #MurdaughFamily Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on a court clerk's plea in a high profile murder case.

Alex Murdaugh was sunk by a totality of the evidence against him, but some of the most damning evidence that was presented was the digital evidence that was collected by the investigators and then rebuilt into a timeline showing exactly where Murdaugh was during the time of the murder. When added with the other evidence, such as the video where his voice was heard in the background, it led to a conviction. In Idaho there is a very similar thing taking place behind the scenes as the investigators there have filed over sixty digital warrants already and more expected to come. When you look at the evidence that they had against Alex Murdaugh and you compare it with the evidence collected against Bryan Kohberger, there are many similarities with how the investigations have unfolded.In this episode we take a look at those investigations and see where they are similar and what that might mean for Bryan Kohberger at his trial.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell have endured a lot during the nearly seven years they've covered the Murdaugh family but NOTHING like what they're experiencing now.  Shortly after Mallory Beach's death, Mallory's family filed a lawsuit in search of justice and accountability and an assurance that Parker's Kitchen would shore up the training of their cashiers when it comes to the sale of alcohol to minors.  Instead of seeking to settle the case, Parker's Kitchen, Greg Parker and their legal team appear to have embarked down a very dark path, engaging two political operatives — one known for “mischief-making” and the other known for harassment campaigns against individuals — to help lessen their liability in the case.  Which brings us to the past six months, during which Greg Parker's attorneys have used mischaracterizations and unsupported theories to turn their focus on Mandy and Liz in an effort to silence them and their coverage of the case(s)… So much to cover, so let's dive in!

As his marriage falls apart and a civil lawsuit will surely expose his financial crimes, Alex Murdaugh contemplates drastic measures to avoid the consequences.  Hulu's “Murdaugh: Death in the Family” stars Jason Clarke and Patricia Arquette. Adapted from the “Murdaugh Murders Podcast,” the miniseries focuses on Alex's financial scams, Maggie's unhappy marriage, Paul's boating crash, and Buster's connection to a cold case.

South Carolina is about to do something it never expected to face: sit in a courtroom and explain whether the most high-profile trial in state history was actually fair. On February 11, 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court will hear Alex Murdaugh's appeal—an appeal built on allegations that go way beyond legal strategy. We're talking about a court clerk chasing fame, a jury exposed to comments that never should've been made, and a trial that became a six-day spectacle of financial wrongdoing rather than a focused examination of the double homicide at Moselle. Tonight, we break down exactly what this appeal argues, what the state is pushing back with, and why this hearing could change how South Carolina trials are run for years to come—regardless of how anyone feels about Alex Murdaugh personally. We'll walk through the key issues:  • The Becky Hill scandal and the allegation of jury influence  • The flood of financial-crime evidence that may have overwhelmed the murder case  • The questionable investigative shortcuts the defense says were ignored  • What the Supreme Court can actually do—and what each option means  • How this hearing could redefine fairness, prejudice, and courtroom integrity This isn't about whether you like Alex Murdaugh. This is about whether the system followed the rules when everything—from politics to public pressure to Hollywood-level media attention—was pulling it toward a verdict. And with Becky Hill now facing charges of her own, the stakes are suddenly higher than anyone thought. The question now is simple: Will the Supreme Court stand by the original verdict, or step in and declare that the process itself crossed a line? Let's dig into what's coming, what's at risk, and what this appeal really means. #Murdaugh #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #Moselle #SouthCarolina #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #LegalAnalysis #CourtIntegrity #BeckyHill Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Laura continues her conversation with award-winning investigative journalist Mandy Matney, creator of The Murdaugh Murders podcast and executive producer of Murdaugh: Death in the Family on Hulu, where they dive deeper into Alex Murdaugh's psychopathy and the spiders web of his coercive control. Laura and Mandy take a deeper look at the dynamics of the Murdaugh family and those within their inner circle - unpacking family and friend relationships, exploring signs of psychopathy, coercive control, and sexual coercion. Together, they explore the red flags, risk factors, and manipulation tactics that enable predators to operate undetected and the role that charm, influence, and privilege play in fooling those around them, and silencing victims. This powerful discussion exposes how coercive control manifests behind closed doors and how patterns of power, dominance, and entitlement escalate to murder.  Listen, learn, and share. Understanding these behavioural patterns is essential to recognising risk and saving lives.

In the noise, chaos, and courtroom spectacle of the Murdaugh murders, one voice was never fully heard — and it may be the one that changes how you see this case forever. Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson, the Murdaugh family's longtime housekeeper, has now broken her silence in a memoir packed with the kind of details only someone inside that home could recognize. And one revelation stands above the rest: Blanca does not believe Alex acted alone. Tonight on Hidden Killers, we go deep into Blanca's account — not the sanitized version from trial clips or headlines, but the raw observations she lived through the morning after Maggie and Paul were killed. She walks into Moselle expecting grief and chaos. Instead, she finds staging. She finds inconsistencies. She finds details so off-pattern that her instincts, built from fourteen years of working inside that home, start screaming that something else happened here — something larger than the state ever pursued. We explore every anomaly Blanca describes: Maggie's SUV parked in a place she never parked. Pajamas and underwear laid out in a way Maggie would never prepare them. A kitchen “cleaned” in a way that didn't match her routines. And later, the infamous Edisto beach towel Blanca had washed that morning — suddenly appearing in Alex's Suburban on police body cam, then vanishing for good. Then there's the chilling image she shares of an unfamiliar woman walking through the property after the funerals as if she owned the place. And perhaps most disturbing of all, the fact that Blanca says law enforcement never interviewed her — the one person who understood the difference between routine and staging. In Blanca's eyes, the murders had one gunman, but the aftermath had more than one set of hands. If you think you already know this case, you need to hear this. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #Murdaugh #AlexMurdaugh #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #TrueCrime #BlancaSimpson #Moselle #CrimeDocumentary Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Stephanie Tinsley created the true crime podcast, Everything They Missed. It is about the 2007 savage murder of Danny Harris in Memphis, a father of four, two of them Memphis police officers. Mr. Harris's body was left unnoticed and decomposing in his home for 2 months. The case was closed suspiciously and within 48 hours, police zeroed in on a 24-year-old black man, Andrew Hayes with a 3rd grade level IQ, who had never met the victim. After a 27-hour unrecorded interrogation, Andrew confessed. The Tennessee Innocence Project now calls that confession false, but for 18 years, Andrew has remained in prison.  Tinsley's show  uncovered new evidence that may exonerate the man. Stephanie is married to attorney Mark Tinsley. Mark's name is familiar to Impact listeners due to his involvement with the Alex Murdaugh trial and the Scott Spivey case. Stephanie discusses the Hulu Murdaugh special. Seton Tucker and Matt Harris began the Impact of Influence podcast shortly after the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh.

In this episode from June 2022—Investigative journalists ⁠Mandy Matney⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ share revealing jailhouse phone calls that exposed Alex Murdaugh's true character months before his murder conviction. Hear Alex dismissively mention Stephen Smith and Gloria Satterfield by name, suggest Buster give away Maggie's belongings as Christmas gifts, and obsessively manipulate his family while positioning himself as the victim. Mandy and David add retrospective commentary on the recordings revealing textbook narcissistic patterns: blame-shifting, victim mentality, and seemingly an inability to express genuine remorse.Episode ReferencesMMP #33 - Incoming Call From Alex Murdaugh: The Jailhouse TapesMMP #49 - Incoming Call From Alex Murdaugh - Part TwoMMP #50 - Incoming Call From Alex Murdaugh - Part Three

In this remastered episode from November 2022, we examine the constantly shifting alibi that Alex Murdaugh's defense team presented in the weeks before his murder trial. Investigative journalists ⁠Mandy Matney⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ break down how Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin manipulated media coverage through strategically timed motions and carefully worded statements that technically told the truth while omitting crucial context. This episode also reveals the five key elements of a Murdaugh defense motion and shows how the defense team planted seeds of doubt through confusing exhibits and sensational headlines. Plus we reflect on what we now know after Alex's conviction, this episode serves as a masterclass in media literacy and the importance of scrutinizing sources—especially when they have a history of misleading the public.

In this November 2022 episode—remastered with updated context—Mandy Matney dissects one of Dick Harpootlian's most shameful pre-trial stunts: publicly insinuating Curtis "Eddie" Smith of being the "real killer" based on a failed polygraph test. Watch Dick spiral through desperate theories—from Eddie to groundskeepers to anyone but Alex—while Creighton Waters finally fights back against the media manipulation. Learn about the crucial evidence: high-velocity impact spatter, Paul's phone video destroying Alex's alibi, and the timeline that placed Alex at the scene. This episode also tackles Judge Carmen Mullen's alleged abuse of power and captures the moment Dick compared himself to... Abraham Lincoln...?With trial just weeks away, Dick's chaos strategy was in full effect. Spoiler: it didn't work. The jury saw through everything within just a few hours of deliberating.

In this remastered episode from August 2022, producer David Moses reflects on the chaotic period just after Alex Murdaugh was first charged with murdering Maggie and Paul. Looking back from November 2025, after Murdaugh's conviction and two life sentences plus the other 40+ years for financial crimes, Mandy examines how Harpootlian's strategy weaponized every procedural motion to create confusion and control headlines. The episode also marked an amazing milestone: the announcement of Luna Shark's collaboration with YouTuber Eric Allen Daume, who would later help us create the official podcast for Hulu's "Murdaugh: Death and the Family." This remaster proves that despite all the manufactured chaos, truth ultimately prevailed—sunlight really is the best disinfectant.Episode ReferencesSpecial thanks to ⁠Eric Alan Daume⁠ for capturing audio and video in support of this podcast.

Originally released in April 2022, Who Killed Maggie & Paul? Part Three marked a critical point in the Murdaugh Murders investigation.In this episode, journalists Liz Farrell and Mandy Matney reveal the first major breakthrough: physical evidence linking Alex Murdaugh directly to the Moselle crime scene through high-velocity impact spatter found on his shirt. The team unpacked how this discovery—and Alex's shifting alibi—transformed public perception and intensified scrutiny of law enforcement's handling of the case. The episode also connected the dots between Alex's crumbling finances, the upcoming Beach lawsuit hearing, and the mounting pressure that preceded the murders. This remastered edition revisits that pivotal reporting, pairing sharp analysis with haunting 911 call audio and expert forensic insight. It captures the moment when rumor gave way to reality—and the truth about the Murdaugh family's empire of deceit began to unravel in full view of the world. “FOX Carolina's exclusive interview with Murdaugh attorney Jim Griffin: Part One” - Fox Carolina, Oct 12, 2021
