The court found that these patient’s were not killed. They were given sedation and analgesics for comfort.

15K old folks in nursing homes died in France the summer of their big heat wave...imagine the hell of an unairconditioned hospital ward, no running water, no light...wonder if they knocked the windows out to get a little air.

Court? What court? I didn't even know that the case had gone to trial. Was it a civil or criminal trial?
All that I knew had happened is that, based on the evidence presented to them, a grand jury returned a no bill, having been presented with no testimony from any of the five medical experts on whose opinions the charges were based. Had I been on the grand jury, I would have done the same.
Of course, new charges can be filed and the available evidence presented to this or another grand jury, hopefully with a different outcome.
