If you want to take a Christian perspective, the word "commit" is used to emphasize that the individual took specific action as opposed to "omit" meaning they failed to take proper action to prevent evil.
"Died by suicide" implies passivity. It just happened to them.

- Ticklee 4y agoWell with officer involved shootings I can kind of understand the passive perspective, seeing as cops are not really acting on their own accord.
- khazhoux 4y agoI genuinely don't understand this comment. In the olden days, a news report would say "A suspect was fatally shot by a police officer." Now, they'll only say "A suspect was fatally injured during an officer-involved shooting." Which is like, yeah no kidding the officer was "involved" -- he pulled the trigger!
