Oh dear.  Someone in Australia holds our laws and our legal system in contempt.  I doubt I'll sleep tonight with such disappointment.  1.) The woman's friend of which we speak hasn't been convicted of anything as of yet, and the owners of that bridge, CN, have the right to press forward or not with a complaint of trespassing.  Therefore, to-date, he's not officially committed any crime - that is a legal clarification as we all know they were trespassing, but until he's been charged, tried and found guilty he's not committed a crime for which he's to be punished. 2.) There has to be evidence of criminal negligence on his part that would've lead to her death in order to charge him accordingly.  So far we've heard of none.  Simply because he didn't tackle her to prevent her walking that bridge or otherwise physically restraining her from doing so doesn't constitute negligence.  She was an adult and able to make her own choices, albeit with tragic consequences. 3.) A strange argument is yours:  Usually the Europeans as well as the "Far-East Europeans" (a.k.a. Australians) raise the loudest howl over Americans persisting in our support of capitol punishment.  This, even though in many, many cases, the convicted murderers stand a better chance of death by natural causes before the chair takes its' toll, as the result of seemingly endless legal appeals.  Yet here, you condemn our legal procedures for not convicting and punishing the grieving friend on charges that, at least so far, the railroad hasn't opted to press and without supporting evidence for manslaughter.
