"We’re working the case. We are waiting on some digital evidence," Campbell said.

Biffle, Biffle’s wife and the driver’s two children along with three others were on a business jet when it crashed in North Carolina on Dec. 18, killing everyone on board.

The Cessna C550 erupted into a large fire when it hit the ground short of the runway at an airport in Statesville, according to federal officials.

No cause of the crash was released.
