The cycle.org.au page has been updated for yesterday. The inquest finished today (Wednesday) but the coroner's report and findings will not come out until next year.
While the police investigation seems to have been superficial and incompetent the coroner's inquiry appears to be far more thorough than anything we see in the UK. It is led by a highly qualified, experienced magistrate. She has spent three days hearing evidence and cross examination. Over here an overstretched, understaffed coroner's service would only spend about three hours in court.
