Having read the backstory, it seems that: she was on the ledge with two other friends and all agreed to jump from the bridge. One of her friends had just jumped and she agreed to jump with the other friend, who I believe is the same friend who pushed her. She was hesitating, so the friend that pushed her starting counting down because others were waiting to jump. When the girl who was pushed balked, the pusher pushed when countdown hit zero.

Sounds like an acquittal on the most serious criminal charges, then...

“No” means no, in a bed or on a bridge.

If two people agree to have sex, and one clearly withdraws consent, but the act is nevertheless forcibly completed by the other, is it not then rape? If someone agrees to purchase a good, and then decides not to, but the other forcibly takes the money and hands over the good, it is not then robbery? (Noting that in the latter analogy there are “no returns”, as in the case of being pushed off a bridge, or for that matter having a sex act completed against one’s will.)
