The article says he successfully resuscitated her. But then he just, like, kept her for five hours instead of calling 911 (I'm assuming she was unconscious the whole time), and this is the issue, because she fell into a coma and died 14 months later. So the question is, did preventing her from receiving emergency care contribute to her coma and death? And it seems like the answer is yes.
