To further build on what Creed said, there are also murders that fall into the "crime of passion" section. Essentially a murder that was not premeditated. Example being husband comes home and finds his wife cheating on him. Husband kills wife. Child abuse and family neglect have little to do with that, sometimes people just snap. Also we can't forget other motivations such as money which people will kill for no matter what. And in an free society run completely by privatized courts and security as you seem to be implying, there would be really nothing stopping someone from killing to get what they want and paying off the courts and security.
And to go even further, there is nothing stopping someone from from buying up a lot of security and forming a military, and buying a lot of courts and building a government. The problem with anarchy is that in an anarchistic world there is nothing from stopping a group of people from forming together to create their own government, there would be no laws stopping someone from doing that. Humans, like most primates, create social systems. I really don't think anarchy would last more than two generations before government was rebuilt. We crave societal structure.
