Overview
- Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson's book, Within the House of Murdaugh, written with Mary Frances Weaver, is being released this month.
- She writes that a beach towel visible on Alex Murdaugh’s front seat in bodycam video matched one she had washed and shelved that day, prompting her reaction, "He did it."
- Turrubiate-Simpson says Alex later pressed her to remember him wearing a Vineyard Vines shirt, which conflicted with her memory, and she believes that shirt and the towel were never seen again.
- She describes early anomalies at Moselle the morning after the killings, including Maggie’s SUV parked out of place and pajamas and underwear laid out, which she felt suggested staging.
- The memoir notes she felt dismissed during the initial probe, recalls her trial testimony, includes an unsent letter to Alex, and underscores that his 2023 murder convictions stand as he pursues appeals.
