You are joking, but that's almost exactly what happens. Aircraft investigations are universally conducted on the basis of not assigning blame, but figuring out how to prevent this in the future.
The point is that airplane mechanics generally do not forget to tighten bolts out of pure evil intent. They are for the most part just ordinary humans who can be expected to behave as such. Therefore when an error occurs it is a failure of the system, not them personally. Replacing them with another human who makes human mistakes doesn't fix anything.
In this case we ask the same thing: what happened that caused things to go so wrong on this set, and what can we change to prevent that from happening again? I'm quite certain that putting this person in jail is not the answer to that question.
What happened? She didn't do her job.
How do you prevent it from happening again? Make sure there are repercussions for not doing your job. Something like maybe jail? That's a pretty big deterrent.
Edit: I'm not big on sending people to jail. I do believe sex crimes, and violent crimes are 100% jail worthy. Drugs, theft shit like that, no. If you get someone killed because you didn't follow what you are contracted to do, then yeah, I think you need to go to jail. Not for years, but 18 months, that might be a little long but it's not unfair. You took a life.
