Tuesday is a big day in the Holyoke Soldiers Home case against ousted Superintendent Bennett Walsh and former Medical Director Dr David Clinton.
Both have been charged with criminal neglect by the state in the decisions that were made during the pandemic.
78 veterans died during the pandemic at the facility.
The defense will ask a judge to throw the cases out against them.
The case is among the first, if not the first in the country to be brought against officials in the nursing home industry.
