Lawyer Paul Cassell also wrote that the government should prosecute officials who were in charge of Boeing at the time of the crashes in 2018 and 20...

No one was seriously injured in the incident, but it raised fresh concerns about the company's best-selling commercial aircraft. The National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are conducting separate investigat...
