Washington, D.C., USA: The U.S. Department of Justice may scrap a planned criminal trial against Boeing, offering a second deferred prosecution agreement in connection with the fatal 737 MAX crashes. This unusual move would again allow Boeing to avoid a felony fraud conviction, despite earlier admissions of deceptive conduct. Victims’ families argue the company is escaping accountability a second time, having already paid $2.5 billion in 2021 without a conviction. Boeing insists it has overhauled its leadership and safety practices. Critics worry that evading trial dilutes deterrence, while officials cite Boeing’s economic and strategic importance.
