By David Shepardson WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Families of some of the 346 people killed in two fatal Boeing 737 MAX crashes plan to object to a tentative nonprosecution agreement between the planemaker and the U.

The Justice Department and Boeing could strike a deal that would avoid the company entering a guilty plea or prosecution. Boeing previously agreed to plead guilty to criminal fraud last year after the Biden Justice Department found the aerospace giant violated a 2021 agreement.

Prosecutors are proposing a nonprosecution agreement to resolve Boeing’s violation of an earlier settlement.
