I thought that murder was what we called intentionally killing another, with certain variances for manslaughter factored in also?

Agreed. The difference between "murder" and "killing" is the intent of the person carrying out the action. It has nothing to do with a sense of guilt. I am certain there are plenty of people who have caused accidental death who feel tremendous guilt over having taken a life. That doesn't make them murderers.
