Prosecutors told a judge Boeing had broken its three years of probation after the crashes, which ended days after January's 737 Max door-plug blowout.
The U.S. Justice Department says Boeing broke a deferred prosecution deal with the government following a pair of fatal 737 Max crashes more than five years ago. That means the troubled plane maker could be subject to criminal prosecution for defrauding federal regulators, though Justice Department lawyers stopped short of saying whether they will pursue that remedy.
The DOJ agreement essentially placed Boeing under probation for three years — a term that ended just days after the midair blowout on Jan. 5, 2024.have long criticized the prosecution agreement with Boeing as a sweetheart deal for the company, and have been waging a years-long legal battle to overturn it.
“We hope that DOJ will continue to pursue justice for Boeing’s victims, and move forward with a prosecution against Boeing for its egregious criminal acts that resulted in the deaths of 346 innocent people,” said Erin Applebaum, a lawyer at the firm Kreindler & Kreindler who represents victims’ families.
