Police Investigate Friends Who Stole Cash and Digital Funds from Greg Biffle's NC Home

Story Summary

Following the fatal plane crash involving Greg Biffle in December 2025, North Carolina authorities allege two friends broke into his empty Mooresville home on January 7 to steal cash, firearms, and financial data worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Investigators issued over 40 warrants targeting a married couple who allegedly accessed bank accounts and cashed fraudulent checks across multiple states while the estate administration was absent.

Memphis-based Sunstar Insurance Group appointed Adam Meyerowitz as CEO on May 5, succeeding founder Casey Bowlin who became chairman. Meanwhile, Gainesville-based King Risk Partners named Arne Gabrielsen national sales leader and Chris Hofmann regional president for the Mid-Atlantic area. Both firms operate within the insurance brokerage sector, with Sunstar serving nine states and King Risk focusing on specific regions.
