“but this was not murder.”

Officer discretion aside, someone was killed during the commission of a crime. That is murder.

This seems more on point.

507.020 Murder. (1) A person is guilty of murder when:

(b) Including, but not limited to, the operation of a motor vehicle under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to human life, he wantonly engages in conduct which creates a grave risk of death to another person and thereby causes the death of another person.

Not all homicides are murder.
