JUNE 24 -- The widespread outbreak of COVID-19 at the Holyoke Soldiers' Home and the circumstances that allowed the situation to deteriorate as it did were in the spotlight Wednesday as an investigation into the home was made public.

Gov. Charlie Baker said that he accepted the resignation of Francisco Urena, his veterans services secretary, and that he is "moving to end the employment" of Bennett Walsh, the home's superintendent, after reading the report. He also said he plans to file reform legislation, which he is expected to detail Thursday.
