Boeing and the Justice Department are pushing for a judge to sign off on a settlement deal related to past fatal crashes—but families of the victims are fighting it, arguing it lets Boeing off too easy. The deal likely includes fines and safety commitments, but critics say it lacks real accountability.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about legal paperwork—it’s a high-stakes clash over justice. Families who lost loved ones in Boeing’s 737 Max crashes feel the proposed deal is a slap on the wrist for the aerospace giant. The outcome could set a precedent for how corporations are held responsible when their mistakes cost lives. For Boeing, it’s another step in a years-long effort to move past the crisis, but for the families, it’s far from over.
