U.S. prosecutors are in discussions with Boeing and the families of crash victims ahead of a July 7 deadline to decide on potential criminal charges against the company. This follows Boeing's alleged violation of a 2021 deferred prosecution agreement related to two fatal 737 MAX crashes in 2018 and 2019. Boeing contends it has adhered to the agreement, but prosecutors argue otherwise. The Justice Department is also meeting with victims' families for their input as they weigh their decision.
