Federal prosecutors have recommended charges against Boeing for potential prosecution related to fatal airline crashes in 2018 and 2019. The Department of Justice has a deadline until July 7th to decide on bringing charges due to a panel loss on an Alaska Airlines flight. If prosecuted, Boeing could face charges including conspiracy to commit fraud and other potential charges. The company had a deferred prosecution agreement in 2021, but prosecutors claim they violated it, putting them at risk. Boeing has denied violating the agreement. These potential charges arise from previous 737 MAX crashes that resulted from an anti-stalling system malfunction, killing 346 people. Boeing is also accused of downplaying safety concerns and providing false information to federal regulators.
