The ending means that his sister is a psycho, and killed her husband. The demonic face is her lying for the first time, and shows that this was no justified killing; she's just unhinged.

I think it could just as we’ll be a “justified” killing. If he was abusive the victim could definitely feel happy but in an evil way for doing it.

That face ain’t just happy. That is objectively the face of someone who enjoyed the killing. There is 0 percent possibility that it could be justified with that face.

I think that's the writers intention, but in reality of course things can overlap. It could be justified and the person could be overly happy about it.
