Justice Department reaches deal to allow Boeing to avoid prosecution over 737 Max crashes
Briefly

The Justice Department has reached a deal with Boeing to avoid criminal charges related to allegations of misleading regulators about the 737 Max. The settlement involves a payment and investment exceeding $1.1 billion, including funds for crash victims' families. While the DOJ states this is a just resolution, many relatives believe it lacks accountability for Boeing and still seek harsher consequences for the company. The agreement aims to provide financial recompense and improve air travel safety, but concerns about Boeing's accountability remain significant among victims' families.
Ultimately, in applying the facts, the law, and Department policy, we are confident that this resolution is the most just outcome with practical benefits.
Although the DOJ proposed a fine and financial restitution to the victims' families, the families that I represent contend that it is more important for Boeing to be held accountable to the flying public.
