Matt won a big settlement as a survivor of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Rig explosion, making him one of the wealthiest and thus most eligible bachelors in town. However, after Matt&#8217;s unfathomable death, his last will and testament leaves the majority of his estate to Alex and very little to his only child, his teenage son, Jordan. After it&#8217;s discovered that Donna forged Matt&#8217;s will, law enforcement begins to investigate. As they move beyond the white-collar crime, they uncover a secret mistress and other inexplicable deaths and question if something potentially more nefarious could be at play.<\/p><div id=\"morty-591281024\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Donna has a lot to say about it all, and she isn&#8217;t the only one talking. &#8220;<em>Southern Fried Lies<\/em>&#8221; reveals the insights of those in the community impacted most by Matt&#8217;s death and Donna&#8217;s duplicitous actions. In addition to Donna, Matt&#8217;s son Jordan, the lead FBI agent, town coroner, and others speak out to share their side of events as the special examines all the twists and turns of the case.
