According to Reuters:
The U.S. Justice Department said on Friday it has struck a deal in principle with Boeing to allow it to avoid prosecution in a fraud case stemming from two fatal 737 MAX plane crashes that killed 346 people, dealing a blow to victims' relatives.
The agreement allows Boeing (BA.N), to avoid being branded a convicted felon and was harshly criticized by many families who lost relatives in the crashes and had pressed prosecutors to take the U.S. planemaker to trial. A lawyer for family members and two U.S. senators had urged the Justice Department not to abandon its prosecution, but the government quickly rejected the requests.
According to fool49:
There is no justice for the rich and powerful. Big business is shielded from the consequences of their dishonest activities. They are neither transparent nor accountable. Their victims families will be financially compensated for their losses. How much is a life worth?
