'Very disappointing': Attorney for victim's families upset with DOJ letting Boeing avoid prosecution

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The Justice Department has reached a deal with Boeing that will allow the airplane giant to avoid criminal prosecution for allegedly misleading U.S. regulators about the 737 Max jetliner before two of the planes crashed and killed 346 people, according to court papers filed Friday.

Local aviation attorney Mark Lindquist, who worked with the victim’s families, was disheartened by the agreement.

“Not surprising, very disappointing,” Lindquist said via a news release.

Under the “agreement in principle” that still needs to be finalized, Boeing would pay and invest more than $1.1 billion, including an additional $445 million for the crash victims’ families, the Justice Department said. In return, the department would dismiss the fraud charge in the criminal case against the aircraft manufacturer.
