Families of Boeing victims object to its proposed 'sweetheart plea deal' with the DOJ, attorney says

• Boeing earlier reached a deferred prosecution deal with the DOJ for two fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019.
• The DOJ now plans to charge Boeing with fraud after officials found Boeing violated that deal.
• The new plea deal doesn't hold Boeing accountable for the deaths, an attorney for the families told BI.

Families of the victims of the two fatal Boeing 737 Max crashes are denouncing a plea deal the Justice Department is preparing to offer the airplane manufacturer, an attorney representing some of those families told Business Insider.
