Boeing may be subject to criminal prosecution after the Department of Justice (DOJ) accused it of violating the terms of a 2021 settlement agreement. The government is still deciding “how it will proceed in this matter,” and has given Boeing until June 13 to respond. Advertisement“We believe that we have honored the terms of that agreement, and look forward to the opportunity to respond to the Department on this issue,” a Boeing spokesperson said. Boeing thought it had put its 737 MAX problems behind it, with executives hoping for sunnier horizons for the aircraft manufacturer. So far, 2024 hasn’t panned out that way — starting with the blowout of a door plug on an Alaska Airlines flight just five days into the year.
