You're still lying, but now attempting to defend the lie.
There are no criminal charges. You lied.

Lying to the FBI is a federal crime. That's what Martha Stewart went to jail for. In the Boeing case the FBI is doing a criminal investigation into the certification process. Anyone accused of lying to the FBI would have to be charged and convicted in court (or plead guilty) in order to be sentenced. No one has been charged with anything as yet, as far as I can tell. Anyone interviewed by the FBI, and there will at least be two of them, should have their own lawyer, not only Boeing's lawyer, present and record the meeting. Had General Flynn done the same he would likely not be in any trouble today.

New flaw discovered with the MAX, a failure of the microprocessor.
When testing the potential failure of the microprocessor in the simulators, "it was difficult for the test pilots to recover in a matter of seconds," one of the sources said. "And if you can't recover in a matter of seconds, that's an unreasonable risk."
Why can't test pilots recover using the stab trim runaway procedure in a matter of seconds?
