US judge blocks Boeing's guilty plea in 737 MAX crashes case over fears diversity policies would drive 'racial considerations'
A US judge has rejected a criminal settlement with Boeing over the 737 MAX crashes, slamming diversity policies at the aviation giant and the Department of Justice that made him "sceptical" of a fair outcome. Boeing has agreed to plead guilty to a criminal fraud conspiracy charge to resolve a US Department of Justice investigation linked to two 737 MAX fatal crashes. Paul Cassell, a law professor at the University of Utah who represents families of MAX victims cheered the judge's ruling, calling the agreement a "cosy deal" between Boeing and the DOJ.
