Does this mean she is dead?

Basically I am trying to argue that D is guilty of manslaughter because V in in a comma and has sustained brain damage.
No because they are not declared brain dead only brain damage and a comma isnt fatal - a coma on the other hand.

I think he's saying that a "comma" is a form of punctuation. For example "," one of those. Whereas a coma is a deep sleep and can be fatal.
