Federal Judge Ends US Government's Case Against Boeing Amid Settlement

A federal judge in Texas has dismissed the US government’s criminal case against Boeing over two 737 MAX crashes that killed 346 people. The decision comes after a revised agreement was reached between the Justice Department and Boeing, which includes fines, compensation for victims’ families, and internal safety reforms. While this may provide a sense of closure for Boeing, it raises concerns about accountability and public safety in the aviation industry.
