The Trial Of Alex Murdaugh

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?

The death of 19-year-old nursing student Stephen Smith has haunted South Carolina for nearly a decade — but with new national attention from the Hulu Murdaugh series, the truth about what happened to him is finally back in the spotlight. In tonight’s Hidden Killers deep-dive, Tony Brueski breaks down the real story behind the case: the strange crime scene, the contradictions in early investigative reports, the forensic inconsistencies that never should’ve been ignored, and the long-buried leads that investigators are only now pursuing. We walk through Stephen’s final night, the discovery of his body on a remote rural road, and the major red flags that made troopers question the hit-and-run narrative from day one. We also address — directly and responsibly — the long-circulating rumors involving the Murdaugh name, explaining what was speculation, what investigators actually found, and why SLED says there is no evidence tying the family to Stephen’s death. More importantly, we highlight the real investigative leads resurfacing today: individuals who made suspicious statements in 2015, inconsistencies in witness accounts, and the newly reclassified finding that Stephen’s death was a homicide, not an accident. With a grand jury working behind the scenes and national pressure mounting, the case is closer to answers than it has ever been. Stephen Smith was more than a rumor in a small Southern county. He was a son, a brother, a friend — a teenager with dreams of becoming a nurse — and someone out there knows exactly what happened to him. If you’re here for real reporting, grounded analysis, and a breakdown that cuts through the noise, you’re in the right place.

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?

Inside the walls of the Moselle home, long before the murders, long before the trial, and long before the world knew the Murdaugh name for what it would become, there was one person who witnessed the daily reality of this family — the routines, the habits, the private moments, and the small details that never make it into headlines. Her name is Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson, and in her new memoir, she finally lays out the pieces of the puzzle that only someone inside that house could ever truly see. In today’s Hidden Killers deep-dive, Tony Brueski breaks down Blanca’s revelations with the intensity they deserve. From the morning-after staging she immediately recognized as “wrong,” to the clothing inconsistencies Alex tried to rewrite in her memory, to the infamous Edisto beach towel she washed that morning and later saw in his Suburban on police body cam — this isn’t just another perspective. It’s a firsthand account that directly challenges the story Alex Murdaugh spent years trying to sell. We explore why Blanca held onto her belief in Alex’s innocence far longer than most. We walk through the chilling moment that finally shattered that belief. And we dig into the emotional betrayal threaded through her unsent letter — a private message never meant to be public, now revealing what it feels like when someone you trusted manipulates you into playing a role in their cover-up. This episode isn’t about theory. It’s about the truth of lived experience — the kind of truth that can only come from the person who folded the laundry, straightened the collars, cooked the meals, and knew the difference between the way something should look and the way someone wanted it to look after a crime. If you’ve followed the Murdaugh case, you’ve never heard this story like this before. And if you thought the verdict was the whole story… you may want to listen all the way to the end.  #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #AlexMurdaugh #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #TrueCrime #BlancaSimpson #Moselle #CrimeInvestigation Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Murdaugh story isn’t over. Not even close. Three final filings now sit before the South Carolina Supreme Court, and each tells a completely different story about justice. On one side, prosecutors insist Alex Murdaugh’s guilt was “obvious,” pointing to the kennel-video timeline, his own lies, and what they call an avalanche of proof. On the other, Murdaugh’s defense claims his 2023 double-murder trial was corrupted from within—tainted by a courthouse clerk who allegedly coached jurors, buried forensic failures, and let weeks of unrelated financial crimes turn into character assassination. In this in-depth Hidden Killers breakdown, Tony Brueski digs into the final battle lines: – How a single juror’s affidavit about Becky Hill’s alleged influence could rewrite one of the nation’s most famous verdicts. – Why the defense argues South Carolina’s justice system “bent the rules” to deliver a result the public demanded. – How the state counters that the evidence was overwhelming and that any missteps were harmless. – What happens next if the Supreme Court agrees—or refuses—to reopen the case. This isn’t just a fight over one man’s fate; it’s a test of whether South Carolina’s courts can admit their own cracks without collapsing. You can think Alex Murdaugh is guilty and still wonder if the system went too far to make sure the story ended neatly. Join us as we unpack the final chapter—unless, of course, it’s just the beginning. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #TrueCrime #SouthCarolina #JusticeSystem #CourtroomDrama #MurdaughMurders Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Alex Murdaugh case has reached its most critical moment yet: the South Carolina Supreme Court is now reviewing the final filings in his appeal, and both sides are delivering a completely opposite narrative of what happened in that courtroom. One side says the evidence was overwhelming. The other says the process was broken. The justices now have to decide which matters more. In this new Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and legal analyst Eric Faddis examine whether the verdict was powered by solid facts or by a trial that couldn’t withstand its own chaos. The prosecution argues everything lines up: Murdaugh’s voice on the kennel video, his shifting accounts, his financial world collapsing around him — all pointing toward guilt. The defense counters with accusations that the trial was tainted from the inside: Clerk of Court Becky Hill’s alleged comments to jurors, untested DNA, missing forensic work, and a flood of financial testimony they say “poisoned the pool” long before the jury deliberated. Tony and Eric explore what appellate courts really evaluate — not guilt or innocence, but integrity. Did the clerk’s alleged words create prejudice? Were the financial crimes allowed to overwhelm the murder evidence? When does “harmless error” become harmful? And how much does media pressure play into what judges are willing to overturn? Beyond Murdaugh, the episode asks a larger question: What happens when a justice system has to evaluate itself? If the verdict stands, does that restore confidence — or just protect an institution’s reputation? And if a new trial is ordered, does the public view it as fairness or failure? This appeal will define not just Alex Murdaugh’s future, but how the public sees the courts moving forward. #HiddenKillers #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #LegalBreakdown #TonyBrueski #MurdaughCase #SupremeCourtReview #EricFaddis #JusticeDebate #CourtAppeal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh’s murder conviction was supposed to be the end of the story — but now the outcome of his trial is under review at the South Carolina Supreme Court, and the spotlight isn’t just on the evidence… it’s on the courthouse itself. In today’s Hidden Killers episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis tackle the most explosive element of the appeal: allegations that Clerk of Court Becky Hill may have influenced the jury, urged a quick verdict, commented on Murdaugh’s body language, and then wrote a book she financially benefited from. One juror claims Hill whispered, “Watch him… don’t be fooled.” The state says it doesn’t matter. The defense says it absolutely does. Tony and Eric take listeners inside the legal and psychological weight of jury influence: What happens when a court official speaks to a juror about the defendant? Can a juror truly “un-hear” a remark from someone in authority? And how should the justices interpret Hill’s later criminal charges — irrelevant noise, or evidence of a compromised system? The episode also digs into the evidence battle the appeal now centers on. Was this a murder trial supported by overwhelming proof — or a character trial overloaded with financial-crime testimony unrelated to the shootings? Were missing DNA tests, uncollected fingerprints, and absent gunshot residue analysis harmless mistakes… or constitutional failures? And when the public already picked a side long before the verdict, how much pressure do the justices feel to either protect the system’s credibility or correct its mistakes? This appeal isn’t just about Alex Murdaugh’s freedom. It’s about whether the justice system can still be trusted to police itself — or whether the courtroom became a stage where fairness took a back seat to outcome. #AlexMurdaugh #BeckyHill #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #MurdaughAppeal #JusticeSystem #CourtIntegrity #EricFaddis #CrimeDiscussion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It’s been nearly three years since Alex Murdaugh was convicted of murdering his wife Maggie and son Paul, a verdict that felt like the final chapter in a Southern empire built on generational power, corruption, and deceit. But now the case is back in the spotlight — because three final filings have landed in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court, and they paint two completely different realities about what happened inside that courtroom. In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and former prosecutor/defense attorney Eric Faddis dissect why this appeal matters far beyond whether Murdaugh pulled the trigger. The state insists the verdict is bulletproof: the kennel video placed him at the scene, his lies destroyed his credibility, and the motive was clear. Meanwhile, the defense argues the entire process was contaminated before it even began — with Clerk of Court Becky Hill allegedly influencing jurors, commenting on Murdaugh’s demeanor, and later writing a book she financially benefited from. Add in untested DNA, missing gunshot residue analysis, and expert-pressure allegations, and the trial starts to look less like justice and more like a perfect storm of misconduct. Tony and Eric break down the real questions the Supreme Court must answer: Was the trial fair? Did the clerk’s alleged comments prejudice the jury? Can a verdict stand if the process underneath it cracks? And what does it mean for public trust if a clerk who handled the jury is now facing her own criminal charges? From how jurors absorb financial-crime testimony, to whether “harmless error” can excuse missing forensic testing, to the psychology of high-profile verdicts and the pressure on courts to protect their own institutions — this episode asks whether justice was served, or simply performed. If the Court upholds the conviction, the case is over… until it isn’t. If they grant a new trial, the system itself becomes the story. What do you think? Did the evidence overpower the errors — or did the errors overpower the verdict? #AlexMurdaugh #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TrueCrime #MurdaughAppeal #BeckyHill #CourtSystem #EricFaddis #LegalAnalysis #JusticeDebate Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh — the disgraced South Carolina lawyer serving life in prison for killing his wife Maggie and son Paul — has decided to issue a statement from behind bars attacking Hulu’s new true-crime series about his case. In the letter, Murdaugh claims the show contains “numerous inaccuracies” and “misleading portrayals,” even going so far as to say it “totally mischaracterizes his relationships” with the very people he murdered. He accuses Hulu of failing to reach out to him, his attorneys, or his surviving son Buster before releasing the series — as if that somehow invalidates decades of documented lies, theft, and manipulation. In this episode, Tony Brueski rips apart Murdaugh’s delusional statement line by line — exposing the narcissism, denial, and moral rot that have defined every chapter of this man’s life. From stealing millions from clients, to staging his own suicide for an insurance scam, to the brutal murders at Moselle, Alex Murdaugh’s downfall is a masterclass in arrogance. Now, from prison, he’s worried about how Hulu portrayed him? The audacity is staggering — and we’re breaking down every word of it. 🎙️ Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski  Your home for true crime analysis, courtroom commentary, and psychological breakdowns of the world’s most infamous cases. #AlexMurdaugh #MurdaughMurders #HuluSeries #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeToday #MaggieMurdaugh #PaulMurdaugh #BusterMurdaugh #SouthCarolina #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Before the murders, before the boat crash, before the empire collapsed — there was Gloria Satterfield. For more than two decades, Gloria worked for the Murdaugh family in South Carolina. She wasn’t just a housekeeper — she was family. She helped raise their children, managed their home, and held together the daily chaos that fueled one of the South’s most powerful legal dynasties. And then, in February 2018, she was found bleeding on the brick steps outside the Murdaugh home. The official story? She tripped over the family dogs. No autopsy. No investigation. Just another quiet tragedy in the shadow of privilege. But years later, that “accident” would become the first thread that unraveled everything. Investigators discovered Alex Murdaugh — the same man Gloria worked for — had orchestrated an insurance scam, convincing her sons to sue him so he could “help” them, then stealing every penny of the $4 million settlement. Her death, and his deception, became the moral fault line that exposed his entire empire of fraud, lies, and murder. This episode dives deep into Gloria’s life, the mysterious circumstances of her death, and how her name ultimately brought down the Murdaugh dynasty. From the 911 call that didn’t add up, to the exhumation of her body, to Alex’s ultimate confession — this is the story of the woman who became the ghost haunting every courtroom photo of Alex Murdaugh in shackles. It’s not just true crime. It’s a moral autopsy of power, trust, and betrayal in the American South. 🎧 Watch and subscribe for daily deep dives into the most shocking true crime cases: Donna Adelson, Bryan Kohberger, Karen Read, and more — all through the sharp, unfiltered lens of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski. #MurdaughMurders #GloriaSatterfield #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #SouthCarolina #Fraud #Justice #HuluMurdaugh #TonyBrueski #CrimePodcast #TrueCrimeToday #LegalAnalysis #PowerAndCorruption #MurderMystery Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Alex Murdaugh’s name has become synonymous with deceit, greed, and betrayal. The former South Carolina attorney confessed to stealing millions from clients, friends, and even his own firm — but does that make him a murderer? In this explosive episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we strip away the money, the scandals, and the headlines to ask one uncomfortable question: did the jury convict Alex Murdaugh for murder, or for being a monster they already hated? In March 2023, Murdaugh was found guilty of killing his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, at their Moselle property. But with no murder weapon, no direct forensic link, and no eyewitnesses, the case depended heavily on his financial crimes to establish motive. His own attorney, Dick Harpootlian, admits Murdaugh is a “horrible person” for what he did financially — but insists that doesn’t mean he pulled the trigger. As the South Carolina Supreme Court weighs whether to grant a new trial amid allegations of jury tampering by former court clerk Becky Hill, the debate over guilt versus prejudice is heating back up. Tony breaks down the real evidence: what points to guilt, what points to innocence, and why removing the financial narrative changes everything. Was Murdaugh’s conviction built on facts — or on disgust? Is he a murderer, or just a morally bankrupt man who became the perfect villain for America’s true-crime obsession?

Before the double murder. Before the financial crimes. Before the national headlines—there was a boat. And on that boat was 19-year-old Mallory Beach. What happened that night on the South Carolina river wasn’t just a tragic accident. It was the moment the Murdaugh family’s century-long illusion began to crumble. In this explosive episode, we revisit the night that started it all. We dig into the manipulation, the lies, and the system that bent over backward to protect the Murdaughs. From Alex Murdaugh strong-arming witnesses in the ER, to deputies with ties to the family writing the reports—this isn’t just about a cover-up. It’s about generational narcissism wrapped in Southern charm. This is the real story of what happened the night Mallory died—and how one family's obsession with power finally met its match.  #MalloryBeach #PaulMurdaugh #MurdaughMurders #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #BoatCrashCoverup #AlexMurdaugh #SouthernCorruption #JusticeForMallory #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hulu’s Murdaugh: Death in the Family promised a gripping retelling of the Lowcountry’s most disturbing crime saga—and it delivered drama. But how much of it is grounded in the ugly, sprawling truth? In this episode, we compare the streaming series to the real events behind Alex Murdaugh’s meteoric fall—from murder and financial fraud to the implosion of a legal dynasty that ruled South Carolina for nearly a century. We dissect what the show nailed—from the 911 call and cell phone video to the boat crash and Gloria Satterfield’s death—and where it pulled punches. What’s missing is just as important: the cover-ups, the privilege, and the decades-long abuse of power that made it all possible. The dramatization touches on the chaos, but the real story is darker, more calculated, and far more disturbing. This isn’t just about a man who murdered his wife and son. It’s about a system that let him steal, lie, and manipulate for years without consequence. Watch this before you believe the screen version is the full story. Because what Hulu left out? That’s where the real horror lives. #MurdaughMurders #HuluSeries #DeathInTheFamily #AlexMurdaugh #TrueCrimeComparison #FactVsFiction #TrueCrimeTV #MurdaughTrial #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeBreakdown Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the world of white-collar crime, it’s not always the man holding the gun who does the most damage. Sometimes, it’s the man holding the pen. Russell Laffitte, the former CEO of Palmetto State Bank, has officially been sentenced—state and federal—for his pivotal role in enabling Alex Murdaugh’s sprawling fraud schemes. From court-appointed conservator to criminal co-conspirator, Laffitte turned trust into a weapon and helped siphon over $1.8 million from vulnerable clients—victims of injury, trauma, and death. In this explosive breakdown, we dive into Laffitte’s calculated choices, the financial mechanisms he exploited, and the chilling pattern of betrayal that turned him into the enabler behind South Carolina’s most infamous legal dynasty. This isn’t just about a banker gone bad. It’s about systemic failure, small-town power, and what happens when legacy becomes liability. We unpack the stolen settlements, the broken promises, and the legal fallout that followed. From the exploitation of Hakeem Pinckney’s estate to the stolen trust funds of Natarsha Thomas and the Badger family, this episode exposes how Laffitte kept the Murdaugh machine humming long after it should have shut down. If you thought the Murdaugh case was just about murder—you haven’t seen the money trail. And Russell Laffitte was the guy laying down the tracks. #MurdaughMurders #RussellLaffitte #TrueCrime #WhiteCollarCrime #MurdaughFraud #SouthCarolinaScandal #PalmettoBank #ConservatorFraud #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Banker Behind Murdaugh: Russell Laffitte Sentenced for Fraud & Conspiracy Russell Laffitte was once the golden boy of South Carolina banking—CEO of Palmetto State Bank, “Independent Banker of the Year,” heir to a century-old family dynasty. Now, he’s headed to federal prison. In this episode of Hidden Killers, host Tony Brueski takes you inside the courtroom and beyond, unpacking the full story behind Laffitte’s five-year federal sentence for bank fraud, conspiracy, and wire fraud—all committed to prop up none other than convicted killer Alex Murdaugh. This isn’t just about dirty money—it’s about the quiet power that makes crimes like Murdaugh’s possible. Laffitte didn’t pull the trigger. But he moved the money. He signed the loans. He drained trust accounts meant for injured clients and grieving families. And for years, he helped Alex Murdaugh steal from the people who needed protection most. We break down how the scheme worked, who got hurt, and why Laffitte finally pleaded guilty—despite originally fighting the charges. We also explore what his downfall says about the toxic loyalty, unchecked privilege, and small-town dynasties that enabled Murdaugh to wreak havoc for over a decade. Was Laffitte a victim of charm and pressure—or was he always this willing to betray the public trust? And how many more accomplices are still hiding in plain sight? With new details from federal documents, court transcripts, and expert analysis, this is the story of what happens when the people who are supposed to protect the system… become part of the rot. 👉 Subscribe for more deep dives into the Murdaugh web of deception—and the enablers who kept it spinning.
