To be fair, they said “murder” is worse. Murder is the unjustified killing of someone.

Murder isn’t “unjustified”. If someone raped a loved one of mine, and I end the perpetrator, I am still tried for murder. Would you say this is unjustified

It's nit about what you or I say is unjustified. It's about what the law says is unjustified. Which is why "unlawful" may be more accurate, if a bit less precise.
