Boeing Will Plead Guilty To 737 MAX 8 Criminal Fraud Charge Related To Deadly Crashes

Boeing will plead guilty to a criminal fraud charge related to the deadly 737 MAX 8 crashes that happened in 2018 and 2019. The news comes six months after the high-profile Alaska Airlines 737 MAX 9 door blowout incident. That dramatic incident, taking place in January 2024, brought the safety of the aircraft type into question again.

Boeing is criminalized but no executives have been apprehended for negligent and irresponsible management

[@jantjarks7946]

The message to the airlines and passengers is simple. If your planes fall out of the sky, no one in the Unaccountable States of America will care. Especially the Department of Junglelaw. The worst is, the victim families won't be able to bring Boeing to court with this agreement. If anyone asked the victim families if they agree to this? Guess what...

Certainly seems that the upper 1% is beyond criminal prosecution. (Those individuals are doing "high 5s" in their conference rooms and golf courses.)

[@delta_cosmic]

ok but that's not the only criminal charge boeing has the face. What about those whistleblowers who were killed? And what about the fact that they neglect safety/quality and abuse their employees? Also just because Boeing is fined, that will not affect the CEO's payment at 33m dollars...

[@MrSesmith11]

Since Citizens United, how many corporations have gone to prison in criminal prosecutions? Zero. CEOs are the face of the organization they work for. They are paid millions for little actual work. It seems fitting that for that much money, there should be significant risk. Put them in jail.

Not happening. Companies have the benefits of being "individuals". Meaning the company gets criminalized but not the individuals within them.

Keep in mind that just selling TWO 737 MAX planes make Boeing more money than that fine.

If only there is one or, two people rich enough to do it. Like what happened to those two former whistle blowers that worked at Boeing. You know what i mean?

They weren’t. Their deaths were not caused by Boeing, and there is no evidence Boeing has tried to kill any whistleblower

$246M... Like, the price of two or three new 737 Max. Yup, that's justice in the American way.

[@hrysivjt67]

Should have gone to trial. The test pilots who deliberately withheld their concerns and covered it up are the ones who should be prosecuted.

The test pilots are the reason MCAS was introduced in the first place. You're saying they should be prosecuted?
