Lawyers for Mark Forkner said an FAA official with personal knowledge of the 737-MAX contacted the government and said Forkner “is a ‘scapegoat’ and should ‘not be charged’.” The court filing did not disclose the official’s name.

Lawyers asked a U.S. judge to allow current or former FAA officials permission to talk with Forkner’s defense team
