But the guy could be alive now if he had been willing to kill somebody else.

I’ll go further and say if she’d gunned down a white guy, they wouldn’t be treating the victim as a suspect in his own shooting. Or would have hesitated as long as they did to charge her. Or perhaps it wasn’t hesitation, but rather the delay needed to find a judge who’d listen to the facts of the case and not balk at the suggestion that she only be charged with manslaughter.
