The plea agreement, reached in July between Boeing and the Justice Department, has ignited fierce debate among stakeholders regarding its adequacy in addressing accountability for the crashes.
U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor questioned the Justice Department's rationale behind the plea deal, particularly why additional penalties could not be imposed to better serve justice and accountability.
Lawyers for victims' families are expressing strong opposition to the agreement, emphasizing it does not hold Boeing and its executives sufficiently accountable for the tragic incidents.
The crashes of the Lion Air flight and Ethiopian Airlines flight led to catastrophic consequences for Boeing, resulting in legal repercussions, loss of life, and widespread grounding of the 737 Max jets.
