The Department of Justice (DOJ) is considering dropping its criminal case against Boeing related to two fatal 737 Max crashes that killed 346 people. Boeing had initially agreed to a plea deal, but a judge rejected it. The DOJ is now proposing a non-criminal settlement involving a $444.5 million crash victims' fund. Families of the victims are outraged and plan to fight the proposed deal, arguing it allows Boeing to avoid accountability. A final decision from the DOJ is pending.
