Summary
Boeing has agreed to plead guilty to criminal fraud charges tied to the 737 Max crashes, avoiding trial but facing a fine and third-party monitor. The deal could complicate Boeing's ability to sell products to the U.S. government as a felon. Family members of crash victims oppose the plea deal, arguing it does not hold Boeing accountable for the deaths of 346 people.
