Relatives who lost loved ones in Boeing crashes are pressing the government to hold the company more accountable.

The relatives of victims that were killed in two separate plane crashes involving Boeing 737 MAX planes five years ago are asking the Department of Justice to fine the company the maximum amount under the law and to prosecute the former executives that were in charge at the time.An attorney representing 15 families who lost loved ones that died in the crashes of Lion Air Flight 610 or Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 sent a letter to the DOJ on Wednesday, asking that Boeing face a $24.

"Since then, the victims' families have ramped up pressure on the government, after spending years seeking justice for their loved ones and to hold Boeing accountable for the victims' deaths.The families' request to the DOJ comes a day after they held a press conference on Capitol Hill ahead of current Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun's testimony before the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations regarding alleged safety concerns over the company's practices.
