Boeing reached an agreement with the Justice Department in which it will plead guilty to conspiracy and pay nearly $250 million in penalties.

The proposed agreement marks the end of a lengthy investigation into the 2018 and 2019 crashes of Boeing’s 737 Max jetliners in Indonesia and Ethiopia, which claimed the lives of 346 people.
