Why would the female population runaway? It doesn't matter what they die from, only that enough died of homicide to impact the numbers of pre-reproduction people dying. If you have population X that reproduces 20% y/y, but 20% (avg. of 10% and 30%) are killed before the next generation reproduces, you have steady state population.
