Exactly...
By they, I mean the prosecutors and/or the local sworn LE agency that will conduct the criminal investigation in a post-incident use of force.
2012's George Zimmerman-Treyvon Martin incident in Sanford Florida is a good example.
The lead detective in Sanford PD wanted to put criminal charges on Zimmerman but the prosecutors(Florida States Atty Office) said; no.
The detective later requested to go from investigations back to regular patrol due to the high profile event.
Many people in the general public(who are not in law enforcement or the US criminal justice system) do not understand all the factors involved in a citizen use of force.
It's not like Law & Order or some Hollywood movie.
There is stress, emotion, anxiety, injury(sometimes), and a possible financial burden after a lethal force event. Gun writer, sworn LE officer & legal expert in use of force; Massad Ayoob has written many magazine articles about the topic.
