Why not just get rid of the status column in incident_comments, and
treat incident_summary.status as the sole copy of the state? When you
need to get to it from incident_comments, you do a join.
The foreign key you really ought to have here is from
incident_comments.incident_id to incident_summary.id
(assuming that I've understood your schema correctly).
