Murdaugh v. South Carolina: What February 11 Decides
2026/02/07
The South Carolina Supreme Court hears oral arguments in Alex Murdaugh's appeal February 11, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. in Columbia. This is the most significant development since his March 2023 conviction for murdering his wife Maggie and son Paul. The appeal centers on two arguments. First, that former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill tampered with the jury by making comments that could have influenced their verdict. Three jurors testified Hill told them to watch Murdaugh's body language and not be fooled by his testimony. Hill denied wrongdoing — but in December 2025, she pleaded guilty to perjury for lying under oath at the very hearing that evaluated those tampering claims. The Supreme Court has added Hill's conviction to the appellate record. The justices will review jury tampering allegations knowing the court official at the center is a convicted perjurer who lied about her conduct during the trial. The second argument challenges the admission of extensive financial crimes evidence. Prosecutors spent a week presenting testimony about the $8.5 million Murdaugh allegedly stole from clients and his law firm, arguing this created motive. The defense calls this "a trial within a trial" that prejudiced jurors before they considered the murder charges. The state's response, filed before Hill's conviction, called the evidence "overwhelming" and dismissed Hill's conduct as "foolish and fleeting." The court has three options: affirm, reverse for a new trial, or remand for further proceedings. No ruling from the bench. Decisions come later, in writing. Regardless of outcome, Murdaugh remains incarcerated on separate sentences for his financial crimes. This appeal determines whether his murder convictions stand. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughCase #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #MaggieAndPaul #JuryTampering #SupremeCourt #MurdaughTrial #Moselle #TrueCrime Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh Supreme Court Appeal February 11: Everything You Need to Know
2026/01/24
February 11th, 2026. That's the date. The South Carolina Supreme Court will finally hear oral arguments in Alex Murdaugh's appeal of his double murder conviction. Nearly three years after a Colleton County jury found him guilty of killing his wife Maggie and son Paul, Murdaugh is asking the state's highest court to throw out the verdict and grant him a new trial. His attorneys have two main arguments: that former Clerk of Court Becky Hill tampered with the jury, and that Judge Clifton Newman improperly allowed prejudicial financial crimes evidence that poisoned the jury against him. Since the original trial, Becky Hill has pled guilty to perjury, obstruction of justice, and misconduct in office. She admitted to lying under oath at the January 2024 hearing where retired Chief Justice Jean Toal denied Murdaugh's motion for a new trial. The defense is now asking the Supreme Court to consider her criminal conviction when weighing whether Murdaugh's trial was fair. In this comprehensive breakdown, we cover every aspect of the upcoming appeal: the jury tampering allegations, Hill's guilty plea and what it means, the defense's argument that the "gathering storm" motive theory was storytelling masquerading as evidence, and the state's position that the verdict should stand because Murdaugh was "obviously guilty." We also break down the federal vs. state standard debate that could decide everything, and explain why Murdaugh's team is still fighting even though he'll never leave prison — he's already serving 27 years for stealing $12 million from clients. The hearing starts at 9:30 AM, will be open to the public, and livestreamed statewide. This is the most significant moment in the Murdaugh legal saga since the verdict. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourt #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #SouthCarolina #Moselle Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hulu’s Murdaugh Series vs. Reality: What They Got Right — And What They Didn’t Dare Show
2026/01/04
Hulu’s Murdaugh: Death in the Family promised to deliver the full story of South Carolina’s most infamous crime dynasty — but how close does it come to the truth? In this explosive Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski pulls apart the dramatization and compares it to the real events that toppled a century-old legal empire. From the iconic 911 call and Paul’s kennel video to the financial fraud that stretched across generations, the series captures the chaos — but not the full horror. Tony examines what the show nails, what it glosses over, and, most importantly, what it omits entirely: the cover-ups, the privilege, the quiet manipulation, and the systemic protection that allowed Alex Murdaugh to operate unchecked for decades. Because the real story is bigger than murder — it’s about a family shielded by power until the façade cracked wide open. Then we turn to the tragedy that set the collapse in motion: the death of 19-year-old Mallory Beach. Long before Moselle became a crime scene, the Murdaugh myth began unraveling on a moonlit river. This episode revisits the boat crash, the ER intimidation campaign, and the deputies who allegedly bent procedure to protect Paul Murdaugh. It wasn’t just a cover-up — it was the moment the Lowcountry finally saw the dynasty’s shadow for what it was. Hulu captures the spectacle. But the truth? The truth is darker, sharper, and far more deliberate. And if you think the series told you everything… it didn’t even scratch the surface. Watch this before you mistake Hollywood for history. Because what the cameras didn’t show is where the real story lives — and where the Murdaugh legacy truly died. #MurdaughMurders #HuluSeries #DeathInTheFamily #TrueCrimeBreakdown #MalloryBeach #AlexMurdaugh #FactVsFiction #HiddenKillers #SouthernCorruption #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced — The Money Trail That Enabled a Killer | 2025 True Crime
2026/01/03
Alex Murdaugh didn’t commit his crimes alone — and today, one of his most essential enablers is finally facing real consequences. In this explosive Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski unpacks the downfall of Russell Laffitte, the former CEO of Palmetto State Bank and heir to a century-old Lowcountry dynasty, who has now been sentenced in both state and federal court for bank fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy. For years, Laffitte wasn’t just a banker — he was the engine behind Murdaugh’s schemes.This episode goes inside the financial machinery of the Murdaugh empire. Laffitte approved illegal loans, drained conservatorship accounts, and siphoned money from some of the most vulnerable victims imaginable: grieving families, injured clients, and people who trusted the justice system. He didn’t pull a trigger at Moselle — but he kept the money flowing long enough for Murdaugh to destroy countless lives.We examine how the fraud worked, why it continued for so long, and how small-town privilege and legacy allowed Laffitte to operate unchecked. Was he manipulated by Murdaugh’s charm and pressure, or was he a fully willing architect of the deceit? His courtroom shift from defiant innocence to sudden guilty plea raises its own questions — and reveals how quickly loyalty evaporates when prison becomes real.Tony breaks down the biggest victims in the financial web, including the stolen settlements of Hakeem Pinckney, the Badger family, and others whose tragedies were exploited for profit. And we explore what Laffitte’s sentencing means for the broader Murdaugh universe: Who else knew? Who else helped? And who might be next?If you thought the Murdaugh case was just about murder, this episode exposes the darker truth — that behind every monster is the person who keeps the machine running.#Murdaugh #RussellLaffitte #MurdaughMurders #TrueCrimePodcast #FinancialCrime #BankFraud #HiddenKillers #SouthCarolinaCrime #WhiteCollarCrime #PalmettoStateBankWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
Blanca Speaks: The Housekeeper’s Memoir That Could Rewrite the Murdaugh Story | 2025 True Crime
2026/01/02
Long before police lights flashed across Moselle… long before the world knew the Murdaugh name for murder, fraud, and power… one woman saw the truth of that home in its quietest moments. Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson, the family’s longtime housekeeper, has finally broken her silence — and her memoir may be the most important firsthand account in the entire case.In this powerful Hidden Killers deep-dive, Tony Brueski dissects Blanca’s revelations with the scrutiny they deserve. She wasn’t a juror. She wasn’t a prosecutor. She was inside that home every day — folding the clothes, cooking the meals, fixing the small details that reveal how a family really lives. And when she walked into Moselle the morning after Maggie and Paul were murdered, she knew instantly: nothing looked right.We break down Blanca’s most chilling observations — the “staged” feel of the room, the pajamas and underwear laid out in a way Maggie would never prepare them, the kitchen cleaned wrong, Maggie’s car parked where she never parked it, and the famous Edisto beach towel Blanca washed that morning that later appeared in Alex’s Suburban on police body cam. These aren’t theories — they are lived details only she could spot.And then comes the revelation that rewrites everything: Blanca does not believe Alex acted alone. She describes an unfamiliar woman walking through the Moselle property after the funerals “as if she owned it,” and she reveals that law enforcement never interviewed her — the one person most familiar with the house’s natural rhythm.This episode explores betrayal, instincts, staging, and the emotional fallout of realizing someone you trusted manipulated you into supporting a lie.If you think you already understand the Murdaugh murders… listen to this.#HiddenKillers #Murdaugh #AlexMurdaugh #BlancaSimpson #Moselle #TrueCrime #MurdaughMurders #TonyBrueski #CrimeAnalysis #HousekeeperMemoirWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
Alex Murdaugh’s First Words to Police: Calm Shock… or Calculated Cover Story? | 2025 True Crime
2026/01/02
What does a man sound like moments after discovering his wife and son brutally murdered? That question sits at the heart of this Hidden Killers episode, where Tony Brueski analyzes Alex Murdaugh’s very first recorded interaction with law enforcement — a raw, chaotic police-cruiser interview that became a cornerstone of the investigation. Every breath, every hesitation, every unnecessary detail tells a story. But what story? Is Murdaugh a father in shock… or a man already engineering his alibi? Tony breaks down Murdaugh’s tone, pacing, and body language as he describes finding Maggie and Paul. Why does he immediately bring up Paul’s boat-crash case? Why does he talk about checking for a pulse, yet remain strangely composed? When compared to other high-profile suspects — including Wendi Adelson — the contrast is chilling. This is interrogation psychology in real time, and the clues are subtle but powerful. Then we shift to the prosecution’s larger theory: Murdaugh as a “family annihilator.” Facing financial ruin, criminal exposure, and the collapse of his reputation, prosecutors argue he killed to reclaim control — using tragedy as a distraction from decades of fraud. Tony examines whether this psychological framework fits the known facts, or whether it’s an oversimplified narrative built for a courtroom. Finally, we expose how the investigation itself nearly fell apart. From unsecured evidence to officers walking through the crime scene, early failures at Moselle created a maze of contamination and confusion. Were these mistakes incompetence… or protection? This episode blends behavioral analysis, forensic critique, and legal insight to bring you the closest look yet at the first moments of the Murdaugh murder story — where innocence, guilt, and narrative all collide. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #PoliceInterview #BodyLanguage #TrueCrimeAnalysis #FamilyAnnihilator #CrimeSceneFailures #HiddenKillers #CriminalPsychology #InterrogationBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

NEW MURDAUGH TRIAL? Appeal Bombshells, Jury Tampering Scandal & Hulu’s Shocking Trailer Breakdown | 2025 True Crime
2026/01/01
Just when the world thought the Alex Murdaugh saga had reached its final chapter, the legal firestorm roars back to life. In this explosive Hidden Killers segment, Tony Brueski unpacks the opening shots in the battle for Murdaugh’s appeal — a fight that may determine whether the disgraced attorney gets a second chance at freedom, or whether the original verdict stands as one of the most infamous convictions in South Carolina history.We dive into the newly filed documents in the South Carolina Supreme Court, examining why prosecutors insist the evidence against Murdaugh was “overwhelming,” while the defense argues the entire trial was compromised by a perfect storm of investigative failures, jury contamination, and unreliable forensics. At the center of the appeal? Former court clerk Becky Hill, whose alleged jury-tampering comments (“watch his body language”) now cast a long shadow over the verdict. Was it a harmless remark — or a constitutional landmine?Then, Tony, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels explore the dramatic new trailer for Hulu’s upcoming series Murdaugh: Death in the Family. From the boat crash to the financial spiral to the Moselle murders, the team reacts to how Hollywood is retelling a story already stranger than fiction. Is the portrayal accurate? Sensationalized? Or a raw reflection of generational dysfunction inside one of America’s most notorious legal dynasties?Finally, we turn to the heart of the debate: Was Alex Murdaugh a family annihilator… or a master manipulator who seized the stand to script his own tragic mythology? His testimony, body language, and contradictions are dissected in detail.The appeal has begun. The narrative is shifting. And the Murdaugh saga is nowhere near finished.#AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #JuryTampering #TrueCrime #LegalDrama #HiddenKillers #HuluSeries #CourtroomAnalysisWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
Murdaugh Appeal BOMBSHELL: Prosecutors Hit Back Hard — Jury Tampering ‘Didn’t Matter’? | 2025 True Crime
2025/12/31
The Alex Murdaugh case is entering one of its most explosive phases yet. South Carolina prosecutors have filed a massive 182-page brief urging the state supreme court to deny Murdaugh’s push for a new trial — even as jury-tampering allegations against former court clerk Becky Hill continue to shake public confidence. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski breaks down how the State is framing Hill’s alleged misconduct as “foolish and fleeting,” not something that could overturn a double-murder conviction. The prosecution argues that the evidence — the kennel video, the timeline, the lies — was so overwhelming that nothing Hill said could have changed the verdict.But the courtroom battle is only half the story.Tony, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels take listeners deep into Murdaugh’s original trial performance, analyzing the psychological theater behind his testimony. From his emphatic denial — “I did not shoot my wife and son” — to the unconscious body language that contradicted him, Murdaugh’s time on the stand revealed a man waging a desperate internal war. Nodding while denying guilt. Shifting explanations. A sudden admission he lied about being at the kennels. His “snot-cry” apology to Buster. His attempt to reframe decades of manipulation as addiction-driven paranoia.Was this grief? Guilt? Or the collapse of a lifelong pattern of control?We examine how his financial crimes, betrayals, and compulsive deceit shaped juror perception — and why prosecutors now insist that even if Hill crossed a line, Murdaugh crossed many more.With oral arguments expected this fall and a ruling likely in 2026, the South Carolina Supreme Court must now decide: was Hill’s comment a harmless slip… or a judicial crack big enough to break the foundation of a historic conviction?#AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #MurdaughAppeal #JuryTampering #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillers #LegalUpdate #ForensicPsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
Becky Hill ARRESTED: How Her Felonies Could Blow Up the Alex Murdaugh Verdict | 2025 True Crime
2025/12/30
The woman who announced Alex Murdaugh’s guilty verdict is now wearing handcuffs herself. In one of the most shocking reversals in recent courtroom history, former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill has been charged with obstruction of justice, misconduct in office, and perjury—casting a dark cloud over one of America’s most watched murder trials. In this explosive Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski unpacks how Hill allegedly allowed sealed trial evidence to be photographed, violated multiple court orders, and used her powerful role in the Murdaugh trial to promote her own book, Behind the Doors of Justice. Prosecutors say she lied under oath about leaking evidence. Investigators say she broke the rules she was sworn to uphold. And Murdaugh’s defense says this validates everything they’ve been arguing for a year: the trial wasn’t fair. But that’s only half the story. Murdaugh’s 132-page appeal to the South Carolina Supreme Court claims his double-murder trial was fundamentally compromised—citing Hill’s alleged juror influence, flawed forensics, and the admission of six days of unrelated financial-crimes testimony. The defense also points to newly discovered text messages from Curtis “Eddie” Smith that were never turned over. Hill’s arrest doesn’t prove jury tampering — but it raises enough questions to destabilize confidence in the verdict. The State insists that while Hill’s actions were inappropriate, they don’t warrant a new trial. The defense says the integrity of the justice system is already shattered. Oral arguments could come this fall, but a ruling may not land until 2026. One thing is certain: Becky Hill’s arrest didn’t just ignite a scandal—it may have opened the door for Alex Murdaugh’s last and most powerful shot at a retrial. #BeckyHill #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughTrial #MurdaughAppeal #TrueCrimeNews #CourtroomDrama #ObstructionOfJustice #LegalScandal #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

NEW MURDAUGH TRIAL? Supreme Court Faces Explosive Claims That Could Undo the Verdict | 2025 True Crime
2025/12/29
The Alex Murdaugh story is not finished — in fact, the most consequential chapter may be the one unfolding right now. Three final filings have landed before the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two radically different versions of justice. Prosecutors insist the evidence against Murdaugh was overwhelming: the kennel video timeline, the lies about his whereabouts, the destroyed credibility, and what they describe as a mountain of circumstantial proof. The defense, however, says the entire 2023 double-murder trial was fundamentally corrupted — built on juror influence, untested forensics, and weeks of prejudicial financial-crime testimony that turned a criminal defendant into a caricature of evil.In this full Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor Eric Faddis dissect the final battle lines. We examine the juror affidavit alleging Clerk of Court Becky Hill commented on Murdaugh’s demeanor. The defense argues those remarks tainted deliberations and demand a presumption of prejudice. The state counters that Hill’s behavior, though “improper,” had no measurable effect — and that the evidence was strong enough to withstand any misstep.We explain how the Supreme Court evaluates fairness, prejudice, “harmless error,” and institutional integrity — and why this appeal isn’t just about guilt, but about whether the justice system can confront its own cracks. Missing forensic testing, questions about expert pressure, and Hill’s own criminal charges raise deeper issues about how courts protect verdicts in high-profile cases.If the Supreme Court affirms the conviction, the saga quiets — for now. If they order a new trial, it becomes one of the biggest judicial reversals in modern true crime.#AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #HiddenKillers #BeckyHill #CourtroomDrama #SouthCarolina #TrueCrimeAnalysis #LegalUpdate #TonyBrueski #JusticeSystemWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
Did Alex Murdaugh Get Convicted for Murder — or for Being a Monster? | 2025 True Crime
2025/12/27
Alex Murdaugh’s name has become shorthand for corruption, greed, and generational deception. But does that make him a murderer? In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski confronts the question few dare to ask: Did the jury convict Murdaugh for the murders of Maggie and Paul — or for the decades of betrayal that made him one of the most despised men in America? With no murder weapon, no direct forensic link, and no eyewitnesses, the prosecution leaned heavily on Murdaugh’s financial crimes to build a motive. Was that enough? Or did disgust do the rest? Tony breaks down the real evidence — what actually points to guilt, what muddies the picture, and how stripping away the financial narrative forces us to reexamine the case on its raw merits. As the South Carolina Supreme Court weighs whether jury-tampering allegations against former clerk Becky Hill justify a new trial, this debate matters more than ever. But to understand the full story, you have to go back to the moment the facade first cracked: the death of Gloria Satterfield. Long before the Moselle murders, Gloria — the beloved housekeeper who worked for the family for over 20 years — was found bleeding on the brick steps of the Murdaugh home. No autopsy. No investigation. Just an “accident” attributed to the dogs. Years later, investigators discovered the truth: Alex orchestrated an insurance scam, encouraged Gloria’s sons to sue him, and stole every dollar of the $4 million settlement meant for them. Her death and his deception became the moral fault line that revealed the rot beneath the dynasty. This episode examines whether the jury saw a murderer — or the collapse of a man who had deceived everyone for decades. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughMurders #GloriaSatterfield #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeAnalysis #MurderOrMotive #SouthCarolina #LegalAnalysis #CrimePodcast #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Murdaugh Housekeeper Tells ALL: 15 Years of Secrets, The Murders & What She Saw Inside | FULL INTERVIEW
2025/12/15
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?

New Murdaugh Bombshell: Blanca’s Red Flags & Becky Hill’s Guilty Plea-WEEK IN REVIEW
2025/12/15
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?

"I Think He Did It" — Murdaugh Housekeeper's Final Verdict | Blanca Simpson Part 5
2025/12/12
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 #JusticeWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Allegedly…?
Why do you keep saying Alex “allegedly” committed financial crimes? He’s been convicted. Under the law, the allegations are now deemed true.

Repetitive Scripts
Are the episode scripts written by ChatGPT? They're repetitive and banal, and that's before you get to the repeated ads. Unlistenable.

Ad at end
It continues 10 min or longer at the end and repeats to the point that I no longer care to listen to this podcast.

Ot, more important, to listen to it. Come on, please do better than this.

Was that only a commercial?
Barely any content, tons of repetitive ads. “Shopify”… now you have the gist of the whole 21 min episode I heard.
