Silverado Senior Living Management and three of its managers each face 13 felony counts of elder endangerment and five felony counts of violations causing death, according the DA's statement.

"Silverado’s top priority is and always has been providing world-class care, respect, and dignity to people living with dementia and a caring environment for our associates," spokesman Jeff Frum said in a statement. "We deny all charges filed against us - they are baseless and egregiously contradict the facts. We look forward to presenting our case during the legal process."

"We will always grieve the loss of the residents to the pandemic and the frontline hero who cared for them," the statement said. "We have taken the pandemic extremely seriously since the start. We recognized COVID-19’s unprecedented threat to society, particularly for people living with dementia and their caregivers."
