Overview
- Turrubiate-Simpson’s book, Within the House of Murdaugh, co-written with Mary Frances Weaver, is available for preorder this month and includes an unsent letter confronting Alex over betrayal.
- She writes that police bodycam footage showed an Edisto beach towel in Murdaugh’s Suburban that she had washed and stored earlier that day, a detail she says triggered her realization of his guilt.
- She says the towel and a T‑shirt later vanished and recounts Alex insisting he wore a Vineyard Vines shirt that night despite her memory of straightening a different shirt for him.
- The day after the killings, she reports being called to clean the Moselle home and noticing Maggie’s SUV parked unusually and pajamas and underwear laid out in ways she says did not match Maggie’s habits, claims she felt investigators ignored.
- Prosecutors used Paul Murdaugh’s 8:44 p.m. kennel video capturing Alex’s voice to place him at the scene, and he was convicted in 2023 and given two life sentences, which he is appealing.
