I'd think that the pgrep is matching both the processes you want to kill _and_ the init.d script itself. Try "pgrep -x" which will exactly match the specified command.
Even better, use "pkill -x -9 my_app" which will combine the grep and kill tasks in a single command; the -9 specifies the signal to send to the matches processes.
"man pgrep" for more information on both commands.
Blame it on the early hour but it should probably actually read:
"pkill -x -9 my_app_bin"
