No, the word “tragedy” has been horribly misappropriated to be used instead of “ungodly crime”.

Tragedies are not caused by sinful behavior. Crimes are.

You are correct, and those that misuse the word “tragedy” to describe criminal acts are , whether knowingly or not, decriminalizing and diminishing the deliberate act.
