A federal judge ordered Boeing to appear in court to be arraigned on a 2021 felony charge after families of those killed in two crashes objected to a plea deal.
to appear in court on Jan. 26 to be arraigned on a 2021 felony charge after families of those killed in two fatal crashes objected to a 2021 plea deal.
The families argued that the Justice Department "lied and violated their rights through a secret process," and asked U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor to rescind Boeing's immunity from criminal prosecution. The crashes in 2018 and 2019 in Indonesia and Ethiopia, which cost Boeing more than $20 billion, led to a 20-month grounding for the best-selling plane and prompted the U.S. Congress to pass legislation reforming airplane certification.
The Justice Department said in 2021 "misleading statements, half-truths, and omissions communicated by Boeing employees to the impeded the government's ability to ensure the safety of the flying public."
