Summary
"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.
