Reaching a Tipping Point
It was no secret that Marvin couldn’t handle her at times and was becoming more and more impatient. At this point, he had lost control physically and emotionally to the point that he resorted to extreme measures… in a moment of rage, on their moving day, he stormed out to get his bat and took Vicki’s life.

Realizing what he had done, he drove to the police station and turned himself in. After informing the receptionist that he had killed someone, he went on to confess everything to the detective, saying that he’d lost control and couldn’t take any more of Vicki’s behavior.
