still it was his magic.

Technically, I would think so, since it would be deliberate and not an accident. And consider, if they tried to pin First Law charges on Harry for killing Turtlenecks, they'd have his head for sure with Rudolph. I think Butters and Sanya were more worried about what it would do to Harry's soul if nothing else.
While we are on the subject, why was it that Michael's Angel guard detail not be able to stop the Turtlenecks? They aren't exactly human anymore, they have gills, or can they get through simply because they are mortal?
Dina:
Telynn, precisely If he had picked an object, it would have been killing for humans, but no magic law would have been broked. But the shield is magic, he would have been executed as Mira says.
And I agree, Snark Knight. Rudolph is going to get revenge on Harry, but I don't know if physically or if he will try to complicate things for him with the vanilla authorities. I just hope it backfires. As I said before, he is Gollum, the fact that Harry allowed him to live will be good in the long term.

So... two things to note:
1. Without Mab "Preparing the Field" Murphy might well have stayed at Mac's. The pain from her injuries would have prevented her from riding a motorcycle and shouldering a bazooka. And her desire to protect might well have overruled her desire to kick ass.
2. Without Mab "Preparing the Field" Rudolph might not have been so insanely panicked -- not to the point that his partner had to knock him unconscious.

3. Without preparing the field Chicago might have died.
People die in wars, it's the whole point. Harry's response is altogether something else.

The angels are Michael's retirement package.
Michael and his family weren't there.
Hence, no smiting was necessary. I think this would have been a bit of a borderline case, so Molly did Uriel a favour by avoiding the need for smiting.
