Although I agree with your view on ownership, I do not agree at all

   I don't see it that way in the least.  This is a guy who is
commited to finding the killer of this person.  He has made it his
personal mission,  he has "owned" that responsibility and takes it
very seriously.  Nobody else is going to do that job but him.  The
family is not equipped to do it. He is providing a service of truth
finding and justice.   Saying it another way might actually make it
easier to not take it so seriously.  "It is just another victim" for
example.
