Boeing accepts plea deal with DOJ to avoid trial over 737 Max crashes

The company has agreed to plead guilty to a criminal fraud charge related to the two fatal 737 Max plane crashes that resulted in hundreds of deaths. As part of the deal with the Justice Department, the company will pay a fine exceeding $240 million, the same amount as a previous 2021 settlement that was breached. However, lawyers representing some victims' families are urging the judge to reject the agreement, labeling it a 'sweetheart deal.'

How does the current settlement amount compare to the 2021 settlement?
