I'm referring to the "murder" talk by protestors and around the internet.

Most protestors and people "around the internet" use imprecise language that doesn't comport to the formal definitions of homicide crimes under state penal codes. Plus, "person who committed negligent homicide" doesn't fit as neatly onto a sign or into a slogan as "murderer." That doesn't mean that they are asserting that Penny deliberately chose to kill Neely with the requisite intent of malice aforethought necessary to support a charge of murder - just that they're protesting or posting using colloquial language.
