Corruption, improper influence of a government official, criminal negligence. I'm sure there are bribery, involuntary manslaghter and "murder one" hidden there somewhere.

Just like pregnant women didn't have any idea what kind of anti-nausea medication they took. Just like people didn't have any idea how their car behaved in a crash test. After a while (and usually after a big tragedy) people start paying attention. And when they start paying attention they don't want to dig too deep. They still don't know or don't care what model of airplane EXACTLY they are flying on. All they know is that certain makes of planes should be avoided. Eventually, it seeps all the way up to the people who run things. It will only take just one insurance company to have higher premiums for employees who travel on 737MAX.
