Interesting thought on why Morrigan manifested the way she has. To me, she represents something larger than "just" a warrior goddess; she represents a larger interest, but she has her own priorities. Jeff and Misha, in particular. She moves her pawns together and sees where free will takes them.
One of the lines from a pagan invocation describes the dark goddess as justice, tempered with mercy. That is Morrigan's intention for Jensen; the deaths he causes are in the interest of justice for Renee, for Misha and Jeff, and for the killer's victims. That's her requirement in exchange for healing his wounds, that he feed her knife with unclean blood.
Also, "I will hold / guard your death" is apparently the offer Morrigan made to Cúchulainn. He spurned her and was kinda doomed afterwards.
