before his forty five birthday would have forty five? Did
you know that Marvin Gaye killed Marvin Gaye the day
before his forty five birthday would have forty five at
his house in front of witnesses, and didn't even go

(00:22):
to jail for it. I didn't know. Maybe you didn't
get didn't know. I didn't know. Maybe you didn't kid
didn't know. I didn't know. Maybe you didn't get. I
didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know.
Oh no, of course we all familiar with Mr. Sexual
healing a k A. Mr Let's get it on a
k A Marvin Gaye, But I had no clue how

(00:45):
he was murdered April first four. Now the story goes
days leading up to April one, Marvin Senior and Marvin
Junior's mama. They had been arguing about a misplaced insurance
policy document. Now it is documented by Marvin Julie you
that when he were growing up, Marvin Senior used to
beat him bad, vicious beatings. Joe Jackson vibes. Months prior

(01:07):
to Marvin Gaye being killed, his family had reported that
he had been depressed and suicidal. Said he even tried
to jump out of a moving car at one point.
Marvin gay was just o d paranoid. So Christmas eighty three,
he gave his pops a pistol, you know, the protecting
for potential robbers, murderers, never knowing that that same pistol
would turn his father into his murderer. So again, April

(01:28):
first night four, Marvin Senior and his wife are arguing.
Marvin Jr. Comes out like, hey, stop talking to mama
like that. They get to arguing back and forth. Marvin Jr.
Says listen, ain't nothing between us but spacing opportunity. My boy,
pull up if you want smoke. Marvin Gate on duck,
no smoke. You heard the song what's going on? What's
going on? This ain't really verbatim? But this how interpreted,

(01:49):
This is more not verbatim. So Boe Marvin Senior come
up to the room. They said, Marvin gate just got
his rob on. He tell pop bus a move. Pop
ain't no chump pop bus a move. They get the scrapping.
So Marvin Julior, you hop on Marvin saying your ass
real vicious like kicking him. Oh d aggressive again hashtag
not verbatim. I'm just telling you stuff that mom said
during her testimony. Marvin Senior got up off that flow,

(02:09):
looked at Marvin Jr. Said all right, I got something
for you, went down the hall, grabbed the pistol, came back.
He didn't even say nothing. You pointed the gun and
Marvin Jr. And shot him in the chest. The bullet
hit his right long heart, dire fram liver, stomach and
left kitten. Now that shot was fatal, but it wasn't
good enough for Marvin Senior. He moved closer and shot

(02:30):
him again. House goes crazy, Mayham everywhere. Marvin Gate Senor
just shot Marvin Gate Jr. In the chest twice. Marvin
Gate Jr. Was pronounced dead at the hospital the day
before his forty fifth birthday with the faux file that
he had gave his dad to protect him with. Now,
Marvin Gates saon, you go to court in November and
say hey, I killed my son in self defense. I
didn't even know if to go with loaded or not.

(02:50):
Skept it. Say well, after the first shot, you walked
over to him and shot him again. Did you know
what we loaded then? Long story short, Marvin Senior played
no contest to a voluntary manslaughter. Arch got six years suspend,
a sentence five years probation, never saw a day in
jail for killing his son, Marvin Gay Jr. I didn't know.
Maybe you didn't either,
