US EditionGreg Biffle Estate Faces $30 Million Wrongful-Death Lawsuits From Plane Crash
- On Friday, estates representing pilots Dennis Dutton and Jack Dutton filed two wrongful death lawsuits against NASCAR legend Greg Biffle's estate, each seeking $15 million in damages for the December 2025 plane crash.
- The Cessna 550 jet crashed near Statesville Regional Airport on December 18, 2025, killing Biffle, his wife, their two children, and pilots Dennis and Jack Dutton, while the National Transportation Safety Board continues investigating.
- Lawsuits allege Biffle was "responsible for ensuring the plane was properly maintained," claiming "inadequate maintenance and upkeep contributed to the crash." A preliminary report revealed the altimeter provided incorrect readings before impact.
- Following the crash, burglars entered Biffle's residence and stole $30,000 in cash, handguns, and NASCAR memorabilia, in what authorities are investigating as a potential "inside job" involving individuals with intimate knowledge of the family's home.
- Investigators recently issued search warrants for Biffle's former co-pilot Aaron Lloyd and his wife Kayelee Lloyd following reports that "hundreds of thousands of dollars" were stolen from the family's accounts after their deaths.
