Blanca was not just their housekeeper. She was an executive assistant, confidant and dear friend. Sweet lady and a gem 💗
She has skills.
I loved when she said it was honest work.
You seem to know Blanca
@@rebeccaLV just wild guesses, lady
I agree. She is so much more than a housekeeper. She is a mother, a wife, a veteran, a productive member of society and a friend to the family. We need alot more people like Miss Bianca in this country and in this world. If that piece of crap Alex cared about anyone but himself, We wouldn't be watching this poor woman give testimony. That dirt bag should have just been a decent human being, father, husband, lawyer...he doesn't deserve to see the outside of a prison cell for the rest of his natural life. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if he got the death penalty to be honest.
This lady is a rockstar. Military, welder, translator, helping others, taking care of the her own family, taking care of the Murdagh family. Well Done.
Also walking into a Piggly Wiggly and taking literally anything they have even though she had no idea what a stocker was just to do something and keep busy. I ❤️her.
Amen
I don’t think she was taking care of her family specially the fact that she has five children somebody else was doing her job, the babysitter, she belongs to the streets, no the care of her own children, she was working full hours, it’s sad to have children and think you are bored, what the heck to have that amount of children when you don’t want to be present for them
@@elenaagurto7962 😂😂😂😂😂 Three of her kids had already left the home, the other two were old enough to have their own activities and school. WTF are you going on about, do you live in the 1500's? Even then women had to work!
@@sharimeline3077 .. I agree. Plus even with a sitter there’s a lot more to do to take care of of a family. Unless the sitter does all the cleaning, cooking, shopping, driving kids, feeding the pets, Dr appts, etc. 😅
This woman, I’m just impressed by her life. She’s got five kids. She got promoted like 4 times in 10 minutes. She’s a military veteran. She’s operated heavy machinery. And then she was a bilingual corrections officer working with gangs?! This woman gets after it. Sheesh. Though I’ve always appreciated and loved them, I feel like i may have generally misjudged housekeepers and Latina nannies. This woman is a superhero.
Because apparently you are a racist
And she sold Maggie’s stuff on eBay and entered a double homicide murder scene 9 hrs later
🙌 bravo
I agree Jonathan. And….overcame a stroke that debilitated her but no surprise she did rehab with intent to be fully back to her ‘old’ self!
I think everyone needs a Blanca in our lives…….actually had my own….spectacular woman who had breast cancer and a different type cancer near vital structures of liver. She was born in China but family came over to states when Ada was young. They never removed her breast tumor…which felt like concrete truck had emptied contents all on upper left area and beyond and let it there.
My friend died on 4th of July. She is with me in spirit…and things will happen like yellow butterflies that lets me know she is by my side.
If Ada had been born Anglo…they would have done surgery. It took a lot of restraint not to confront her oncology surgeon who made those calls or lack there of…..and she is of Asian lineage….at Ada’s service at the Buddhist Temple. That also quietened my anger……if I wasn’t going to kill things small to huge…then I had to be better person.
I think I heard or read & if not mistaken the family gave permission since she had done so much for Maggie. They probably told her to keep the money since she had done so much for Maggie Blanca also was given Bubba, the dog, that helped solve the murder. We heard Alex's voice at the kennels.
@@Nasdaqbabygood that family wasn’t a bunch of saints
Blanca and her husband moved out of the house the DAY AFTER Alex tried to convince her he was wearing a different shirt. They were OUT of there; and, she knew they were possibly in danger. And I loved the way she raised her voice and confronted the defense attorney because he was implying she would ever wash away blood evidence. A very composed and professional witness. Blanca you were a hero in this family's life and in this trial. Thank you for your military service and career of pubic service as a Corrections Officer. Alex is ruing the day he ever let her in that house.
She was outta there! She knew he was a psychopath!
They moved out the day after he was kicked out from the law firm. He had no money coming anymore....
@@amaliadihel and even if that were the case, you expect them to stay and work for free? that’s crazy lol
@@mexicomama777 where did you get that from? Where did you find me say that?
Honey I think you all missed the reading in between the lines! He didn't do it! I now believe that after all the evidence.... Her testimony is bs
She is the perfect example of never judge a person by what Job they are doing because you don't know their work history. Amazing woman.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
💯💯
Yes.. She didn't have to be a house cleaner... She had many jobs before this and she is well educated
Ni al caso , ni al caso.
A person's value is not determined by their occupation anyway. Every person has value by virtue of being a human being. But I agree, this woman is a wonderful example of a humble and loving person who is willing to serve others. Her character is what elevates her.
She is awesome!!!!!!
Blanca is a delight. Thank you for your service to our country. Genuine, articulate lady. Extremely credible.
Her service to our country??
@@zariballard you obviously were not listening
Lovely lady, I agree. But, "um" it's so "um" hard to listen to these "um" constant speech interruptions -- A big no-no in public speaking. Buts she's giving a witness testimony so isn't a public speaker - Obviously.
@@springborn-hg8xi obviously 🙄
U.S Navy 🇺🇸 Thank you for your selfless service Blanca 🫡🇺🇸
The fact that she knows how the pots are left after supper. The fact that she knows how Maggie wears her pajamas -tells me she loved Maggie. This is so heartbreaking on so many levels
... if only just a tad creepy
Let's not get carried away. She was just super close to the family like a family member who happens to be an employee.
@@rkgsd Family members usually love each other 😅 usually…
If you have a boss, don't you know about your boss? I always have, way more than I even wanted, so as a housekeeper, she definitely knew her bosses' habits, etc.
Lol
This woman is such a true gem. Alex was surrounded by good employees but his badness didn't rub off in them
I'm glad that Blanca didn't have a "accident" while employed with that family.
“My Buster.”
From a person who works in another’s home to another - I felt this. They don’t see us. They call us last in an emergency - like Alex calling Blanca just before she would have headed out. But we are there. We care, we love, we see. Those babies aren’t ours but you can’t spend years folding onesies to t-ball uniforms to t-shirts and not bond with the family. We see it all, we feed them their every meal, we scrub out every embarrassing stain, we tidy up every seemingly benign mess, but we are oddly unseen. Blanca knows. Anyone who worked at Mozelle or for the Murdaughs regularly, these are the people to question.
“My Buster.”
My heart is broken for you, Blanca. You did right by them.
That is beautiful and very true. I have worked in childcare and used childcare. It always bothers me when in the comments, people say she is "more than a housekeeper." What they mean is they are surprised that someone so articulate and competent would be a lowly maid. Ridiculous- it is one of the most valuable and challenging jobs to raise a child - and never get the credit. Bianca is awesome, and no doubt so are you. xo
Well said
So much love and respect to you for all you do for other families and how your care for them makes them a part of your own family! So beautiful
😭😭😭

What an incredible woman! She has done so much in her life and raised 5 children.
Wish she couldve taught sons how to do their own laundry! Wings to fly from the nest🦋🦋
She's so sweet, insincere, and respectful, too. Lovely lady.
My god that woman is a hard worker, can you she never she work at every day for life for her kids
Just too bad she never looked inside the pots of foods to see if it was eaten…
@@debbiemartin2026 Prosecution should have asked her - missed opportunity :/
This woman is not as dumb as Alec hoped she was. He tried to manipulate her and he failed miserably. He must have forgotten that her background is law enforcement. Her loyalties were to Maggie and Paul. What a great witness.
Blanca has done good. That's a smart Lady.
Alec is not the sharpest tool in the shed
I love this lady. Honest, hardworking. Her word is gold. Yes is yes, no is no. Not adding something to make him (Alex) look bad, not leaving something out to make him (Alex) look good. She is so trustworthy.
Her*
She may be the best witness I've ever seen in terms of how they are supposed to answer: yes or no, just the relevant facts, wait if there's an objection, etc., and so very credible.
This is just one of the many ways she impresses: mother of 5, military veteran, corrections officer (Sergeant,) bilingual translator, realtor, executive assistant, excellent cook, and loyal friend.
I am so sorry for her loss. I hope it brings her comfort that she helped convict the murderer and is taking care of her friend Maggie's beloved dog, Bubba.
I also hope that she occasionally gives Bubba a steak in appreciation of his part in exposing the murderer's lies in Paul's video.

@@littlezentz and I bet Bubba is allowed in the house now, too. ❤️
Wow she’s a good witness!!!! Loved listening to her testimony, she is solid
Excellent witness. I believe where they have them at with this witness is where she never saw the clothes again that he was wearing that morning when he left
I have to def agree with you! She's well-spoken didnt studder have to stop to think she knew it step by step with every memory
She was more than a housekeeper.She was more like a friend and knew personal things about them
This lady Blanca seems honest and cooperative, remembers details as best that she can with MAYBE small, very small, effects from her stroke, MAYBE. BUT it does NOT prevent her from doing her level best to BE HONEST. Any stress that Blanca is under while testifying, she IS pushing through that stress. I don’t know this lady, BUT I am impressed with her HONESTY, BRAVENESS, COURAGE. SOME comments about this lady, Blanca, are disgusting, and those individuals should be ashamed of themselves, BUT shame unfortunately is what MOST people do NOT have ANYMORE. Look and listen around yourself, Do you notice that SHAME is lost on MOST people?
She’s very lucky to have survived this family. From listening to phone calls to Buster from Alex, she needs 24 hour protection.
AMEN.
@@gaylestephenson9847 she's states Paul had received threats
What was said about her in those phone calls?
@@prattabi I would like to know that as well. I’m going to listen to as many of the phone call as I can. If I find the ones about her I’ll come back and let you know.
Nothing was said about her
Probably the first human being I’ve seen on the stand with actual emotions. She might be the only one who actually cried for Maggie. Maggie’s husband and son certainly didn’t. Poor lady. She’s the only one I feel bad for.
And John Marvin. He seemed to have genuinely loved Paul, and served as a mentor/father figure
shelly smith showed real emotion for the family
Maggie’s sister Marian too
What? I didn't see a tear nowhere while she was on the stand testifying. Sure she probably cared for Maggie and Paul, I've seen several others crying on the stand while they were testifying. John Marvin, Shelly, Maggie's sisters and even some of AM's friend's that are layers cried. It really broke thier hearts. Even AM was crying too. But I don't believe I've seen Buster cry once. He may have and I just didn't see it. While he was on the stand testifying.
Why would Maggie's husband cry for her? ..
Geesh, I would need a few more lifetimes to accomplish everything this woman has. A very accomplished woman, wife, mother. So impressive, such a great role model for her children. Thank you for your service, ma'am
Such a great role model for all of us. You rock Ms Blanca ! I worked with victims of crime and violence as an advocate so I interacted with LE also. Can be tough environment for women. You excelled at every point in your impressive career .
@@RockonRain22 Wonderful Lady who gave her ALL to this family. I am certain Paul and Maggie loved her, and Buster will always love her. I hope they are able to stay connected over time.
Yes she did a lot but now back to square 1 with nothing after this job. After all she did her whole life, she has to find another job & she will. Sad she has to start all over again.
Blanca is a wonderful, sweet, caring, smart, lady who was also Maggie’s confidant & friend. She took care of the whole family just as she would take care of her own family.
She knows everything & doesn’t forget. She is a treasure! Credible witness.
same . i’d need four more lifetimes just to raise four more kids never mind all the work
As a Mexican. I am very proud of Blanca. What an amazing woman and humble.
Love how she answered, "Were you offended by the statement that Maggie made "hope the Mexicans didn't lock the door" not at all, Blanca said. An amazing person that is not offended so easily by anybody. Bless her.
The USA is full of hard working Mexicans.
They are lucky you chose to call the US your home. 🌻
I’m not a Mexican woman, simply a woman and mom but I identify with her drive and persistent quest to get good jobs , helping the Hispanic community and securing insurance for her kids.
I bet Paul and Buster really benefitted from her being in their home
@@jaggirl agreed
Many very hard working honest good people trying to better and secure their families futures.
Family oriented, clean living hood families and strong mommas
So sorry about your loss of Paul and Maggie ❤
Clearly cared deeply for all of them.
So sad
Viva la Raza!
I need an autobiography from this woman. I feel like I could listen to her talk about her life for hours
I'm finally free from autism all thanks to dr ose the herbal Dr massage him on YoutubE
Mark my words...everyone involved will pen their experience. Millionaires in the making.
She deserves anything she deserves for such loyalty, love, and empathy!
After listening to the rambling, bumbling attorneys one almost envies the victims, but only cause they don’t have to sit through this. In really life I am so appalled at the sadness of the mother and son dying together and how awful it must be for the extended family. I do not include the accused in the above statement. It must be especially awful for the living older boy; he doesn’t want to be seen as abandoning his father, still he must have LOTS of doubts. And Paul, while not having anything to do with his father’s larceny, I guess, was far from a good guy, based on the post of his friends describing his personality and behavior, before and after the boat crashed. Seems like his whole family covered for him and got him out of trouble and he never had consequences; so he was NOT an attractive person. His friends should have shunned him for his behavior, but I guess his family and money kept them from that. He doesn’t seem like a great loss to the world. His parents got the kid they created. Seems like they did a better job with the older boy, or someone did. I wondered how the old guy squandered more than four and a half million dollars so quick, but seems like they had house and cabins and what not scattered over 2or 3 towns, plus paying for apartments for two sons in another town, remodeling one and paying for older boy’s college, but still he blew a lot of stolen money and didn’t even buy any hair dye. This case is exhausting.
@@janeszymanski8764 I wonder if she knew what happened to the housekeeper before her. You sure wouldn’t want to turn your back on any of them. And then the old man pocketed the insurance money instead of giving it to her family. $4.5 million.
I'm less than 5 minutes into this video and I can't even keep up with all she's done, going through the comments I must concur, what an amazing human being, God bless her.
I've done alot of jobs and was in the military myself 1981 to 1987 ,married 2 kids later and worked lots of different jobs ,now my daughter is a corrections officer lol ,Blanca is a super star in her own right,God bless her always ❤️
I concur, did u notice all she's done her excellent memory but she did not know her stroke date. If these people had continued abusing her kindness hard work she'd probably be sick way before her time. We've seen movies of housekeeper they appear older. I couldn't understand why her husband had not let her drive in her estate to that house, I don't get that. Usually a murder ur not even to go into the house. Course I don't understand the property
This woman is the real AMERICA, tried and true! The best of all of us. My goodness. I hope someone gives her a hot deal as an influencer in whatever capacity would bring her the most joy. She has so much wisdom to share with the world. Bless her fully loving heart.
I think she is an excellent role model for every sing American and Dreamer in the USA.
This is America and small town America where the big fish is surrounded by all of the good hard working honest folk who cater to them because they are decent and not because the big fish always deserve it. She was paying them respect for helping the Hispanic community and doing what she could not do herself.
This sweet lady is a remarkable human being! She is what this world needs more of! The Murdaughs should have thanked their lucky stars to have someone like her in their lives. Instead Alex Murdaugh puts her in a horrible position and exposes her to pure evil. Prayers for her and her family🙏🏻
I believe poor Maggie appreciated Blanca, Paul as well.
@@kathleenalbuquerque9908 I believe that Maggie confided in her too!
He didn’t expose her to pure evil. She already is evil. I’ve had to deal with that hateful, spiteful, vindictive woman for 30 years now. She is so scheming and manipulative. She will do anything for that almighty dollar, including blackmail to say the least.
Especially after she's had a stroke in her history. That's such a horrible thing to break to someone, and it didn't have to be that way. I'm surprised he didn't let her find the bodies for him, too.
the family are or were the epitome of white privilege as you can get and treated her like a slave.
People like Blanca are what make this country great! People like her are the backbone of this country! I am struck by how many good people Alec had in his life.
The grandma is lucky to have dementia. How brutal it would be to see what happened to her family and how horrific it all ended
Her husband had a lot of women on the side and she wasn’t allowed to complain. The men in this family subjugate women. The John one turning his murderous brother’s demands over to his wife to get done FAST!! When Maggie was not submissive look what she got. Who knows how Randy treats his wife? Wonder how he dodged being called Buster but let it pass on to Alex’s dim witted son.
This family was surrounded by excellence and took it for granted. I feel so bad for this lady.
ten times a daily expose
Yes, they took everything for granted including life. This family was spoiled beyond anything I have ever seen.
Why? She’s fine.
@@ecalose6785 She had a job she loved working for a family to whom she became close; Maggie was her friend
Absolutely right
My heart breaks for Blanca. She made me cry and laugh (describing Bubba as difficult). Bless her huge heart for rescuing that dog.

This lady is so sweet. How devastating for her. She really cared about the family.
she was part of the family ..anyone would feel like that
@@maryalico4313 Not really. She was doing what people in the family didn't want to do. That's different. Why didn't it occur to AM that maybe she also didn't want to go back to the house where Maggie and Paul were killed? And why would paul think getting his dirty laundry done at the last minute was her job to extend her work day because he apparently wasn't capable of finding the washing machine? After errands and cooking and cleaning all day, her work was done and her family was waiting for her. The Murdaughs treated her like a servant; she was expected to be on call all the time.
@@maryalico4313 to Maggie but to Alex she was like his wife's babysitter so Alex could probably do what what he wanted to.
@@dreamingrightnow1174 I wouldn't have been able to go back in there! She didn't turn any lights on! Just too creepy! I believe her testimony 💯!
@@dreamingrightnow1174 The kids had been raised that way. Just sayin.
Blanca, even though you might never see this, never forget you are an amazing person. You’re so strong, caring, and loving. That family was blessed with your presence. Keep your chin up❤️
She wasn't a housekeeper, she was a Personal Assistant.
What an incredible, hardworking woman. She does not deserve to be mixed up in this. Thank you for your service mam
Many times you can be a witness to things you never have a clue which you may have to remember in detail.
Jesus didn't deserve to die but he did so who you think she is
@@toneyingram732 I agree, but that has nothing whatsoever to do with her statement! Does an unborn baby deserve to be murdered by abortion? Of course not!
This was tough to watch. She clearly loved Maggie. And Maggie trusted and confided in her. Broke my heart when she started to say the word funeral and changed the verbiage. You could literally see the pain in her face and eyes and she couldn’t say the word “funeral.”
B ugh
I heard that too She started working for them to help a friend only to get involved in a double homicide That’s tough!
If I were in her place and found out Maggie and Paul were dead, I certainly would not be moving into that same house where everything went down. I personally would not be comfortable, and I would be creeper out and afraid. I can't even believe her husband being a police officer would want to move in with her into a house where a murder had taken place! That's insane! The first person I would think that possibly could have killed her would have been her husband Alex. So why would I go there in the first place, nevermind move in! I know everyone is talking very nicely about this lady and I do think she's a nice lady, but I kind of feel like she's hiding something like she did wash the laundry, she did go over there and possibly help Alex. She may have been close to Maggie, but Maggie was not the one with the money. And she knew who is putting food on her plate, not Maggie! So she's kind of playing two decks of cards, in my opinion. I could be totally wrong, but these thoughts did come to me, as she spoke.
My heart felt the love she carries for this family and the incredible loss she must feel for having to recount her last day with Maggie and Paul. Maggie trusted her. Clearly they were more than employer and employee. Maggie was her friend. Blanca loves this family. Thank you, Blanca for being an incredible witness for your dearly departed friends Maggie and Paul.
She is a gorgeous lady with a beautiful speaking voice. Thank you for your service. So sorry you lost your friend 🙏 So glad you took in Bubba
I love this woman. Wish I had someone like her in my life.
We all do...smile
Me too
I think she was sympathetic to Alex up until the moment he tried to manipulate her memory about what shirt he was wearing the day of the murders. That is when she went back to the house and she and her family left that day. She is no simpleton just someone with a big heart.
Same story just like Alex did the caretaker . Manipulation and intimidation in a sly cunning manner .
I totally agree!! Her husband is a policeman so it would have been any easy choice for sure.
I hope theres more evidence to the murder than a missing shirt...
Haven't heard any.
You're right. I think she thought he was innocent until then! Boom! Smart lady connects dots and never went back.
@@petepayette6690 shirt, shoes and kakis.....all missing and never seen again. Seriously damaging evidence. The fact that he tried to manipulate her recollection is very telling. She sensed that she and her husband could be in danger.
Blanca is a fabulous witness…and a person. Anything she says I believe. Her work ethic, integrity and honesty are deeply ingrained.
I agree with you on that. I watched much of her testimony. I didn't hear too much that would incriminate Alex. I didn't watch the whole thing. Yes, honest, excellent work ethic, loyal. Brenna
I agree, I have no doubts about anything she has said.
Very smart move from the prosecuters: spend a long time establishing how intelligent, experienced, trustworthy and likeable this witness is, so that when her recall of events clashes with his, *hers* will be believed over *his*. A perfect trial witness.
She was honest about it
i am glad you pointed that out- I did not realize that is why the attorneys did/do that
I love how everytime they tried to put words in her mouth, she stop them firmly and with confidence.
An impressive woman. She's had an incredible life. After all she's been through, she doesn't seem judgmental or negative at all.

Thank you for your service Blanca! A truly amazing person. When you discussed being the only bilingual in an office it reminded me of my mom! She is thrown around and unappreciated in the office she works in. Shes always belittled by others because they think, "you sit in an office all day" because she's always burnt out. But you're appreciated, even by a lot of strangers here in the comments! & You are right, you did honest work.And did so with kids! A tough job in itself while doing other jobs, A total badass!

This woman was a true friend, confidant and mother to this family. Love her so much. I come back and watch this interview often because it reveals how much she really cares for people in general. And despite experiencing a stroke has a memory like a steel trap.
It always stuck out to me that she remembered exactly what meal she cooked for the family that night . I’m sure she loved them and took care of them like her own . The kind of thing a mom would remember.
Hands down she's the best witness
She is more hurt over Alex's family's death than Alex
She would have made the best detective
Being that he literally massacred them it makes sense.
No really she wouldn’t have. She should have known better than to go into that house when they’re doing an investigation on the property. She knew better than to be cleaning too regardless of what Alex told her to do.

this is so sad😭what a great person Bianca is. the fact that Alec literally lured Paul and his wife Maggie both home is insane 😳 this man literally did this
He deeply resented his wife and son; he gave his all and got nothing in return. He lied, Stole and deceive to accommodate them and they just keep demanding more.
bianca blanca either way you know what i mean. just so sad. ya know. like they didn’t deserve to lose their lives over this. i’ll never understand
i mean just imagine what was said to them while he’s doing this or what they said to Alex
@@4_Ever_Gr8teful_22 probably corrected it to "Bianca" cuz it's more common. Because Bianca vs Blanca have 2 different sounds
What a remarkable woman! She has such a vast amount of job experience and knowledge base! I am sure she has AM pegged!!
Yes love her
You know it!
She knows
Sure as heck seems to..
Bianca is fascinating. I love listening to her and her experiences in life. It’s ironic when she said she didn’t mind helping out in the house as it was “honest work” . Too bad AM didn’t believe in honest work!
AMEN, AMEN, AMEN. I thought the SAME thing. I loved that statement she made also. Brenna
I have nothing but respect for anyone whose willing and ready to earn every darn Penney and more .
It’s so wrong the way Alec did her and her family also.
Could very well have put her in serious danger setting her over at Mozell and stealing from everyone
Not that anyone else murdered Paul and Maggie, that was aAlex.
But god knows what crazies may have come out of the woodwork learning about all of his thefts and drug issues.
Sickening.
She truly cared for Maggie Buster Paul Miss Libby Randolph and even dirtbag Alex himself.
Honest work is what Blanca did , nothing to do with Alec
She has Bubba too , geez
Blanca, not Bianca 🤦🏻♀️
I listen,I cry and I am angry because the love and caring help their friends give was so taken for granted and it appears Alex was an empty vessel ,well not empty very sick
@Log Cabin Girl she does not . What are you referring to plz?
This woman and the care taker are really hard working amazing women, made me proud to hear their stories, hopefully both are doing good after all of this tragedy.
Wow! The importance of a great companion/housekeeper. She's a phenomenal woman. Super qualified.Fascinating listening to her.
Warmed my heart that Bianca now has bubba the dog !!! This lady was more than a housekeeper to this family !!! Clearly she ran that household and was very good friends with the Mrs (May she RIP)
she was the house manager.
@@4_Ever_Gr8teful_22 you are offened? LOLOL Maybe people that do not have the best eyesight read it as Blanca. Now take a nap, refresh yourself from the drama, and go get a life.
@@4_Ever_Gr8teful_22 it's one letter off, easily could've been done by autocorrect. Maybe she read it wrong. Calm down, keyboard warrior. Not that serious to even waste your time commenting to be a 🍆. 🙄
Very clear and concise statements- credible, capable woman
What a lady! I know her husband & children are very proud of her! God bless her.
This world needs more people like this lady.
Her attention to detail is fantastic
@@alwaysright5593 Defense troll.
Yes I was thinking that too!
@@jeanneglisson4995 I think Alex is guilty and I found her testimony untruthful.
@@CommonSense4u Alex is guilty. She is honest. She remembers the details because she lived it. Any attorney that represents Alex is desperate for money.
@@jeanneglisson4995 You might want to rewatch it.🙄
Her voice is so soothing. She seems like a true friend and hard worker.❤️ Great mom and wife.
This is THE best judge! 100%
I was dying when he said they were taking a recess break while the prosecutor and lawyer argued about “heresay”. Brilliant😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍
Absolutely an example of how a judge should handle a case!
Says a lot that Maggie’s dog ended up with Blanca and not her own family. Dogs always know.
This woman is a treasure to not only take care of so many people but to make sure Bubba had a loving home after losing his mom.
The video inside the dog kennel haunts me. I can’t believe any of them, owner included, felt that was acceptable conditions to keep a dog in.
@@CircleJerk right?? People will say “oh they’re hunting dogs” but like…come on. There was nothing in those kennels-no toys or anything for them. Dogs need stimulation especially dogs trained to do a job. No wonder they were “rambunctious” and constantly attacking the birds anytime they were left out. No recall, no commands, poorly trained. Just bad handling all together. Proper training probably would have saved Gloria.
It’s pretty obvious that Maggie didn’t feel like they were “just tools” but I am surprised she didn’t care more about their housing situation. My bet is that they were locked up quite a bit.
I'm pretty sure that they paid people to come take care of the dogs. Meaning, feed them, let them out and run around. If you are only down there for a minute doing something and it's dusk/dark, you are not going to let all the dogs out. Of course they hunt animals/birds... They're hunting dogs. What do you think they do?
House keeper is one in a million. She portrays a serving heart.
yet she sold Maggies expensive clothes and shoes after she was murdered to make money on poshmark. That is not honest
@@Katiekay. wow. I am a cabinet builder. I did work for some wealthy folks. Closet work to be exact. It was amazing how many pieces of very expensive name brand clothing were there. Many items still had brand new stickers on like they were never used.
@@philipchamp594 yup she made a lot of money off old Mags wardrobe.... I doubt she thought anyone would discover it
Doesn’t matter unfortunately they all were close including Mrs. Shelly!
@@cassiuschiefs430 what are you talking about?
I love how she said it was honest work so she didn't mind doing it. She clearly didn't feel she was "down graded" jobs. Humble and honest. I appreciate the view.
I was thinking the whole time she is a wonderful friend
If only the defendant was more interested in honest work
I also love her humble honest employment views.
You can see the FEAR in Alex's eyes when she talks. He knows she can ruin him with his mistakes she knows.
Like Blanca said, honest work is honest work. Let's not judge each other by the type of honest work anyone is doing at any time.
While Blanca did honest work, Alex stole from children, and seriously injured accident victims.
I’m only about ten minutes in, but she strikes me as incredibly intelligent, humble, and hard-working.
Bless this lovely woman. I can’t imagine how difficult this was for her. 🙏
Very Smart and great lady ! She did a great job ! 👌✌️👍♀️🇳🇱
Amen
Amen 🙏
The prosecutor annoyed the crap out of me during her testimony. First of all, back the funk up and get off me, bro! Him touching her was totally uncalled for! If I was the defense, the few times he stood next to her and nudged her as he was asking the question, I would've objected as leading or flat out improper questioning! Then he's blocking so the jury can't even see her, they just see him being all creepy, all up on her. Super freaking awkward. I literally would've said, "can you please stand over there and stop touching me?" 😂 he's not even at a mic... He's just all over her. Gross.
I so agree, seeing him touch her was odd and creepy.
High strung are you 😅
@@sm3296I also agree that he should not touch her. It's creepy. I feel that he would know to keep his hands off a Man, so why is he touching Blanca.
He was just trying to comfort her….it was trying to be human and not seem cold.
What a great lady she’s from my hometown of Brownsville Texas .
A lot of us grew up w mothers like this who not only managed their own households but others . Sometimes giving more priority to the families they were hired by . My mother was a caregiver and house keeper most of the people she worked for are like family to her and they treated her like family. So sad for this whole situation
Blanca's testimony is honest and detailed. This lady remembers everything, something Alex overlooked. I find her testimony damaging to him.
Do you think she would of known if there had been more than one person showering there?
@@tamirevoir1500 it’s possible due to products used by different individuals, or the different bathrooms used by different individuals. She would know all that because she did everything for the family.
She said she suffered a stroke Wow she went through lots. God bless her and give her good health Amen
@@tamirevoir1500 more than 1 person showering? That's not even a question in this case.
Blanca is lucky to be alive with this family!
Is his lawyer trying to tell the house keeper Alex was your friend, he never said you were nothing but a house keeper. The gall
It's crazy to think that Blanca could've been one of Alex's victims. Like his first longtime house maid.
Scary.
Glad Bianca got the dog . Such a lovely , honest soul
A true caring friend! How hard it must be to be thrown into this mess, friends murdered, others under suspicion. Truly a sweetheart!
Blanca is a LOT more than a housekeeper. I'm sure this was very difficult for her. She's brilliant!
Yes she’s a solid person
Strong smart hardworking and honest
She lets the chips fall where they may
Alec screwed everyone they knew and didn’t know
He’s a class a creepy ghoul and villain of the worst kind
Not a big leap to kill his wife and boy
He had means motive opportunity and a sketchy lie alibi
He’s guilty
I feel awful for ALL. Of the victims he’s created
@@caroljohanson2807 AM cries on cue! It's ridiculous. I believe there may be more victims. I believe that the first housekeeper was killed!
She's like the Chief of Staff. She knows more about them than they know. Hearing about how Alec and that family operates, I'm surprised she's still alive. I figure she made it out because her husband is a cop..
Don’t get it mistaken. EVERY housekeeper is more than just a housekeeper. We see it all. We know it all. We tidy it up and keep quiet but we aren’t stupid and we see.
I pray that the recognition brought about by her good qualities and her conscientious personality serves as a great resume that will bring about a more deserving employer and a better job than she would ever have imagined.
Blanca has lot of integrity and she rehomed Bubba with her family. ❤
This lady is a saint. I bet she was a rock star at her own home. Authentic food and lots of love to her own children. As well as taking care of the Murdaugh family. Knowing every bit of good and bad. She is a lovely woman and isn’t a bit boisterous. Everyone needs a friend likes her , and I am glad Maggie had her for the time she had her! This poor lady! He had such a lovely home and life and could have gotten help w his addiction and still been very successful. All he had to do was be a good person! And yet he annihilated half his damn family! What a waste of his sons precious life and wife. She seemed truly kind and loving. His son never has a chance to redeem his wrong and grow as a man. This man corrupted his son. He is a true satanic person.
This lady really loved them. He hurt so many people. His family, her family and the people in the community he stole from.
Indeed he did hurt an unknown number of people. Here’s hoping at some point in his remaining life he repents to his God. If he’s no longer on drugs, he’ll have a chance.
Yes.
This Lady is everything that a woman needs to be.
So far in watching this trial, I’ve been more impressed with the witness’s than the lawyers.
Well said!
Yes, me too. The witnesses seem more articulate and professional than the lawyers.
That’s the ideal , Elucidate responses 😆
I would be pissed off at his questions like you don't ware a tie with a ban lon shirt. Blanca is so patient.
The lawyers don't even listen to what the witnesses are saying and constantly ask questions over and over after they've already been answered. 🙄
Employers are clueless as to how many intimate details their housekeepers know about them!
Theyll let u know what they want ubto hear.
not really--some are and some are not--can't make a general statement like that
Think Gloria knew too much!
Exactly
That depends. There are people I cleaned for that I did everything for, such as cook, clean, trash, laundry, errands, get kids from school etc. In those cases, I did know most aspects of thier lives, where everything is better than they do. Thrn there are clients I went in to specifically to clean for.I did my job and left. Never knowing anything about them. I especially enjoyed the families I got to know well. It must have been very difficult for Blanca the day after her employer and friend was ki11ed to have to go in and work her her job. That took strength.
Hardworking woman. I bet her kids and hubby are very proud of her.
Between the defense and prosecution tables, they need to retire a few attorneys.
She’s an incredible witness.
Much more smarter than them.
I believe she might have given the best testimony I’ve ever heard
The way she spoke of Maggie and Paul.. she choked up. She really loved them.
And wow, her resume is spectacular! Love to Blanca wherever she is! A true Angel!
Stop touching her and stop asking the same question she’s literally just answered. What a lovely lady, so genuine and sweet.
She found Maggie’s wedding ring in the car and the attorney just let that go.
S, I also wonder about that
This woman is amazing on so many levels. I am constantly stunned by the honest, kind, caring people that surrounded the Murdaughs.
she literally stole Maggies things and sold them on poshmark to make money. Do your research
@@Katiekay. - Proof?
@@grazynkatodisco4916 ask her! She 100% snagged several items and pawned them
What about the “someone tried to burn the house.” That’s a whole subject right there. Maggie must have loved Blanca as a friend.❤️
Proubly not, after all she was the help.
How filthy. Just because you have a housekeeper doesn't mean you can't take your plates to the sink, or empty the pots and rinse them out so nothing sticks. Just disgusting to leave plates and cups all over the house for your housekeeper to clean up.Must be nice to not lift a finger to clean. Even if I HAD a housekeeper, I certainly would make things as easy as possible for her. Strip the beds myself if I wanted the linens washed. Or rinse off the plates and pots when dinner was done. Wipe off a counter here or there. Make the kids take their shoes to the right place. For some reason it bothers me so much to see how the family were not courteous enough to do small things just to help
I worked for a very wealthy family and they were exactly like this. Towels and clothes on the floor, food left out, etc. They were nice to me but it always blew my mind since I just wasn’t raised like that.
you sound like you dont have the life you want. I will pray for you.
@@gracejones2831 I don't know how you connect my comments of not cleaning up your mess to me not "having the life I want", but you're very far off. Obviously you must agree with this behavior. I never had a dishwasher until I was 30, in 2007... I hand washed dishes for 5 people after meals growing up. It's the laziness of not even putting food away or soaking dishes in the sink. But that describes this very generation of people. Lazy.
I would think you would at least clear the table and rinse the dishes so as not to have a mess until the housekeeper came back.
@@oldrvr That's what you think about when it comes to this double murder? How hard the well paid housekeeper has it?
Blanca you’re amazing! Between the evil family and the slow lawyers, you are a delight to listen to. I’m sorry you had to deal with all of this. Love you and respect you! I hope you read this!
Thank you! The lawyer was annoying! Kept repeating himself and couldn't remaining the answer she gave like 2 min before 🙄 we'd all be blessed to have a friend like Blanca in our lives.💗
@@charitizzle6028 I love Blanca and wish she worked for me' she is ONE in 50 MILLION.
She seems like such a nice lady. And very intelligent and accomplished. God bless her and her Family. 🙏🏽
This lady seems like the sweetest, kindest soul. Alex will never realize, and probably never care about the many lives he shattered. Maggie and Paul lost their lives, obviously, but the pain and loss is far reaching. 😣💕
The police should never have let anyone in the house after the murder without documenting and gathering evidence.it would have been interesting to get fingerprints/DNA from the pots in the fridge, touch DNA on Maggie's pajamas, fingerprints on her chest of drawer where the pajamas were kept, blood from the shower drain. It's too weird.
Police officers are often intimidated by rich and powerful people. Rich and powerful people get more respect from others than they deserve.
I feel so sorry for her . She loved Maggie so much . They were close . To have your best friend die in that manner is heartbreaking 💔 she’s an excellent witness .
This has to be so difficult for her. Shame on him for putting everyone through this.
Exactly
Riduclous. Its called mounting a defense to a death penalty charge. She doesnt seem too distressed recounting the story.
There is nothing in her testimony that is derogatory towards the Defense. Further a terrible investigation
Blanca you are a hero with a career that most women couldn't do. Well done!
If someone murdered his wife and son, as an attorney and he knows this, why would he ask her to go straighten the house up knowing there could be evidence there tampered with?? How odd. And it’s so hard to find people like her especially to care for your household because you can’t trust too many of them. I know from friends looking for housekeepers who tell me this. She was more like an Assistant to Maggie.
He wanted to destroy any potential evidence, it seemed to me.
If he wanted to destroy evidence, he wouldn’t ask another person do it
@@contagiousintelligence5007 it's called contamination
I believe it was intentional. To create "reasonable doubt". Thus, the trampling on of all evidence. Other's in the house afterwards. Just all the contamination could cause reasonable doubt. Thankfully, he was too sloppy with his plan though and EVERYONE could see through his lies!
Her memory and sense of observation is spectacular
I don't even remember what I ate this morning or wore last week
I applaud her , and she's well collected too
