It is worth noting that while Emerald was the one who insisted on seeking out Tukson, it was Mercury who is suggested to have killed him. We have no indication that Emerald has ever killed unless I am mistaken. Arguably having killed people wouldn't negate her ability to be on the good side, but it does make it much easier to transition her from bad to good plotwise. Just show that she is a good-natured person done wrong by society who got suckered in by the first person to give her a way out. The remarks she made about RWBY at the beginning of Volume 3 had a bit of a "doth protest too much" feel to them.
