The US Department of Justice is investigating Boeing after the door stopper burst last month to see if the company could be criminally liable.

The Justice Department is examining the explosion that occurred on a Boeing 737 Max 9 on January 5, Bloomberg reported.

An Alaska Airlines plane was destroyed when a door exploded 16,000 feet in the air after the door panel slid up.

Investigators inspected the plane to see if four bolts that were supposed to help hold the panel in place might have been missing when the plane took off.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) conducted the inspection of the plane after the door flew off and landed in the backyard of a suburban home in Portland, Oregon.

Alaska and United Airlines separately reported finding loose pieces in the panels (or door plugs) of some other Boeing 737 Max 9 planes.

According to Boeing’s latest annual report, the Justice Department was considering whether the company met its obligations under the Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA).

If the Justice Department decides to dismiss the information, it would need court approval to do so.

If prosecutors decide that the door plug explosion constitutes a breach of that agreement, then Boeing could face criminal liability, according to the Bloomberg report.

Boeing has desperately tried to explain and reinforce safety procedures following the January 5 incident on Alaska Airlines’ brand new 737 MAX 9.

According to The Air Current, United reportedly found loose bolts and other pieces in the power outlet doors of at least five of its planes.

NTSB investigators are in the cockpit as they investigate what caused a plug covering a spot left by an emergency door to tear off the plane while flying at 16,000 feet.

“Since we began preliminary inspections on Saturday, we have found cases that appear to be related to installation issues with the door stopper – for example, bolts that needed additional tightening,” United told DailyMail.com last month.

“Our Tech Ops team will address these findings to safely return the aircraft to service.”

Alaska said that when it began examining its Max 9s and that “initial reports from our technicians indicate that some loose components were visible on some aircraft.”
