Every felony charge goes through a grand jury.
Indeed, every death is investigated to some extent. Every county has a coroner, some states have full-blown inquests after each death.

I don’t mean to sound rude, but you seem to have little experience with the day-to-day legal processes surrounding every death. You may be more familiar with a crime like arson.
