WASHINGTON, June 18 (Reuters) - Relatives of some of the 346 people killed in two Boeing BA.N 737 MAX crashes in 2018 and 2019 on Wednesday asked a federal judge to reject a deal between the Justice Department and the planemaker to allow the company to avoid prosecution in a fraud case.
The agreement allows Boeing BA.N to avoid being branded a convicted felon and to escape oversight from an independent monitor for three years that was part of a plea deal struck in 2024.
