Boeing's Accountability Challenges and Supplier Acquisition

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is set to charge Boeing with fraud related to the fatal 737 Max crashes but offers the company a plea deal that includes a fine, probation, and a corporate monitor. This deal has incensed the victims' families, who argue it falls far short of delivering justice for the 346 lives lost. Boeing faces significant scrutiny and financial challenges, compounded by recent safety incidents and leadership changes. The proposed deal has been criticized as a "sweetheart deal" that inadequately addresses the severity of Boeing's actions.
