Common theme in the American legal system. I say "legal" because it's not a justice system. Violent crimes are routinely handed lighter sentences than non-violent or victimless crimes & the wealthy often get NO prison time because they can afford bail & great representation. (Google "Robert H. Richards IV" if you want to vomit). Just like our healthcare, freedom is for sale in this capitalist hellscape. It's on us to organize & demand better.

A six-year suspended sentence and five years' probation for cold blooded murder.

Finally someone called him out for his shit! In the Black Community, we don't acknowledge this case enough. We just talk about it whenever mentioning Marvin and go about life but Marvin was our brother. An absolute icon who helped put Motown on the map.

It’s not the voyeurism or the orgies that makes Gaye’s legacy an uncomfortable one - we’re not here to kink-shame. It’s the multiple reports of abuse and the implication that he didn’t always fully grasp consent; the idea that he used violence to get his way, and the coercive behaviour he even outlines in his own lyrics. In hit single I Heard It Through The Grapevine, he sings, “I know that a man ain't supposed to cry/ But these tears I can't hold inside/ Losin' you would end my life you see/ Cause you mean that much to me”. Woman of the World half-heartedly celebrates women’s liberation, but slips into the singer lamenting losing “my girl” as a result. It seems the irony was lost on him that women being free from misogyny directly correlated to their desire to be free from him, too.

Marvin was murdered about a block from where I lived in Los Angeles and I can still remember the horror and heartbreak I felt that day… Marvin’s father killed him because he was insanely jealous of his success. The whole world loved Marvin Gaye. His voice touched your soul. Thank u Monsters for telling “why”.

I grew up with a mother that targeted me emotionally, mentally, financially and physically, rather than my siblings. It’s easy to understand when a parent abuses all their kids, but it’s so much harder to understand when they only abuse one. It just doesn’t make sense. This is so sad. RIP Marvin Gaye Jr.

I feel this is quite wrong, to paint Marvin Gay Sr as a monster. I love this channel, has watched every episode since it started. But my man was not a monster. Marvin Gay Jr had PCP and cocaine in his system. Marvin Gay Sr had injuries from being beat by his son (this is why they reduced sentence), meanwhile Marvin Gay Sr had a walnut size tumor in his brain. This is what Sr said after the sentencing while crying: "If I could bring him back, I would. I was afraid of him. I thought I was going to get hurt. I didn't know what was going to happen. I'm really sorry for everything that happened. I loved him. I wish he could step through this door right now. I'm paying the price now." I dont think he meant to kill him, but Marvin Gay Jr was irrational and aggressive and had attacked his father.. and I think he just wanted to make his son scared to stop attacking him

@@vipr1142 Maybe Jr was fighting with Sr because Jr was defending himself from him. After so many times of getting abuse, you are bound to fight back, especially if the person starts to threaten your life. So, it’s not your typical everyday abuse. Which it didn’t sound like it was that day. Or maybe Jr at that point had enough of the abuse. You know like how women in domestic violent relationships finally hurt and/or kill their partner after prolong abuse. Like that. Abuse is not how it’s portrayed in the movies. Where the victim NEVER fights back or doesn’t have problems of their own. Sometimes they do fight back, because they had enough and are defending themselves. And sometimes they do have problems, which Jr did. Also, adding that Jr had drugs in his system is victimizing the victim. He is the one who got shot and killed. Who cares if he had drugs in his system. You don’t shoot someone because of that. Call the police if you feel threatened. Though, I really doubt Sr was the one that was feeling threatened. If he was feeling threatened, it was his ego that was threatened. By the way, I never said Sr was a monster. But, he definitely was not innocent. He did a lot of wrong to his son and whole family. You don’t abuse and kill, especially your own child.

Marvin was depressed & had failed an attempt a few days before. He had never put his hands on his father until that day & likely knew the reaction that would have.

This hits home for me. My best friend was murdered last year. Some kid thought he was jousting him with words and wanted to fight him. My buddy never ever fought in his life. The kid attacked him, and then pulled out a knife and stabbed him in the chest. In front of his 3 year old kid. The guy ended up fleeing the scene, full of blood and it got on his kid. Police performed a high risk takedown and arrested 3 people. My friend laid there, dying and they could have helped him. Or atleast tried. The knife ended up going directly in the middle of his heart. He was like a brother to me. My family was horrified. 3 days ago there was sentencing for the guy who did this. He pled guilty to manslaughter in December which was horrifying for everyone. He ended up getting sentenced to 8 years, with credits served, 6 and a half years. During her speech, the judge talked more about how he has a lot of life to live, and with his son being young, he needs his father than what he did to forever change the lives of Zachary's family and friends. She cared about his needs more than the justice his family deserves. It is disgusting with the justice system we have here in Canada. I still cry everyday and this sentencing made it worse. My best friend was 27, and the guy will be out and will still be younger than my buddy when he was murdered.

Thank you for your insightful and moving episode about Marvin Gaye. I was living in L.A. when he was murdered by his father and I will never forget it. I remember a local DJ saying to drive around with your lights on in tribute to Marvin, which I did. Marvin Gaye endured such horrific treatment by his father, yet he was able to share his talents with the world which will live on forever.

MG was a Genius, and my heart is broken that his Dad felt like he had no other choice but to take this gift from God away from us! R.I.Power Marvin, you will always live in us! Love you!!!!

I didn’t know his past either, I remember Kurt Loder on MTV, with breaking news that he had been shot, then, hearing he was shot by his father, I was crushed as my very young ears heard this, his father was no father, he was just a donor that created him.😢😡…✌🏻💕

Thank you for creating this in-depth story. I found the part that his siblings, even after witnessing Marvin’s abuse by his father, believing his death to be a sort of suicide to be almost more tragic than his death. RIP Marvin Gaye ❤

When Mavin Gaye died, it was the 1st time I ever saw a grown man cry. That man was my Uncle Bill (RIP). He was so upset about his death because he was one of his favorites. It scared me even though I was 14 when he died. Such a shame 😢

I remember reading the story about Marvin Gaye about a year ago. It's one of the saddest damned stories I've ever heard. He sure was one talented man, gone far too soon. Thank you for covering this. Stay safe.

OMG!! I CAN PUT A FACE TO YOUR VOICE!!! CALL ME WEIRD I FALL ASLEEP TO YOUR VOICE. Your voice combined with the way you speak is one of the best I've heard in my life

This is the first time I've heard a detailed version of Marvin Gaye's life, and I am heartbroken.

I do remember, when hearing news of his passing, we all thought it was an April fools joke. At least I was hoping it was...I adored him (still do). Thank you for telling his story.

I was born in Detroit and grew up in the 60's. The Motown Sound was HUGE and I remember Marvin Gaye was a favorite of mine. I also remember being completely shocked and mystified at the tragic events of his death at the hands of his own father. I never did know the whole story other than what was in the news at the time. I was today years old when I learned the whole story. Thank you Jiles.

There was a face to the narration, pictures, videos and everything else. I'm loving that

I can’t imagine as a parent being anything but proud of my child for his talent, and protect him. Sickening.

I am SO happy you have included him in your monsters list. I learned pretty early on why I connected with Marvin before i could even speak. That abuse is just so clear to those of us who experienced it. Thank goodness for Marvin Jr. He helped save my life.

Soooooooooo sad, this man was failed by those who should have loved him from birth! Things could have been so different, if his upbringing had been better! I hope he rests in peace now 🥺!

This case has made me almost break down crying at several moments. I am a die hard fan of Marvin Gaye's music and knowing the way he died and what he had to endure during his whole life at the hands of the monster of a father he had, just tears me apart. He got only 6 years of suspended sentence after killing his son, who he tortured throughout his whole life and actively made sure he was dead, not only was it the fatal shot to his chest but he had to make sure he was completely anahilated. He is sorry? Sorry he got caught and his brothers saying it was an act of suicide? This man was so distraught and broken from years of abuse that I'm surprised he made it that far without attempting more than once, to end his own life. He did not deserve such an end...rip Marvin. Thank you so much for this post, as always, top notch content, hard to find on KZread these days🎉

Yo that first line was insensitive in my opinion making a joke out of a great song with his death is weird tbh

Narcissists, like Gaye Sr. often have a black sheep in the family, and they are tormented and abused. There is also a golden child, usually, who is the most favoured kid. Happens to a lot of us.😞

Thank you for covering this case ❤ such a loss 😢 RIP Marvin ❤ Also, it’s nice to see your face 😊

Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite singers.

My birthday of all days and he's was April 2nd... That was a sad day for me, I will never forget that day. Rest In Peace 🕊️ Marvin Gaye, you are truly missed.....

What a sad story. Loss of a wonderful singer and lost soul. His father was no Godly man . He was a NARCISSIST. So sad racism still even existed makes me sick he couldn't even go to the movies with his friends. Thank you Jiles for sharing this story. You should really show that handsome face more often .

Well done, as always. I remember this being all over the news despite only being about 8 years old at the time. Shortly after, Diana Ross released a song called Missing You. In September 2021, I lost my wife to metastatic breast cancer and found myself obsessively listening to that song. Before Pam died, I literally had no idea that the song Missing You was written by Lionel Richie, or that the events of this video inspired it. Excellent work as usual!

I always wanted to know more about this story even though I was just a kid when he died. People were so sad but there was never an explanation as to what happened to his father. I could never figure this out. Some people had opinions that the father was trying to defend himself from Marvin. I couldn’t believe them and I didn’t. His story was so heartbreaking Thank you so much for covering. ❤

It’s very difficult for me to watch stories when the other parent or responsible adult does not protect their child from the abuser. I feel strongly that that person is accountable as well. I do speak from a level of experience as I was in a similar situation many decades ago and I made a very different decision to immediately get my child to safety. I understand the challenges especially of women in the past not having the same opportunities of supporting children without a partner however this is never acceptable to me to tolerate the abuse of vulnerable children. Only my position for what’s it’s worth. ❤️

Some of the best singers have started out in Gospel...RIP Marvin Gay

Can you imagine how beautiful things would have been if he had, had two parents that had loved and supported him. I grew up with his music. I knew every word to every song. I'm kind of glad I didn't know the anguish behind the man. It would have made me sad to hear his music, knowing how horrible the child inside still hurt. I never heard the entire story all these years. Thank you for this. God rest that child inside the man who gave us so much and suffered throughout his life.

You got that right Sir. Thank you for talking about this tragedy. Now I have a better understanding. I was 8 years old going when this went down. I remember my Mom crying. Have a great and blessed day. ❤😊

I remember when this happened too.. I knew his upbringing was pretty bad considering I had pretty much the same upbringing.... But I never would have suspected his own father would do that

What's Going On is a bittersweet, human album which observes pain and societal ills while expressing tenderness and sensitivity. On your channel we see a lot of people who take their childhood pain and trauma and respond with acts of violence toward others. Knowing all this helps me understand Marvin a little better, props to him for taking his pain and making beautiful art with it from a perspective most people are fortunate enough they will never have.

A band once sang 'I know a place, cool and warm, Cooling my blood, warming my heart'. Marvin's father was the total opposite. Boiling blood and an ice cold heart.

I've loved Marvin Gaye since I was a kid listening to Motown on the radio in the 70s. His voice was smooth as silk & he seemed like a gentle soul. I was broken hearted when I heard he was killed 😢😭 Rest in peace sweet man 🌠

Thank you for giving dignity to those that have passed on by telling their stories truthfully a remarkable quality you have.

I was listening to Marvin’s music a couple nights ago while studying and there was footage of him smiling and celebrating. Looking at him I thought, “Wow, his own father killed him. He’s living every child’s fantasy and his father took it all way. I wonder why.” Thanks for the video.

Your presentation, your research, and your scripting. is so far above other content creators on youtube. Absolutely fantastic presentations. Long may they continue. Brilliant stuff!!!!

Your iconic voice gets me ready for the crazies! Thank you ❤

That's really sad and sick😢. I didn't know Marvin Gaye had been through so much trauma just before his death 🥺

I was a ten-year-old 4th grader when Marvin was stolen from all of us. What is downright astounding is that Marvin Sr. did not receive the penalty that he deserved. How and why Marvin Jr's mother never left that savage is beyond comprehension. I hope that both men are now resting in peace.

I was 16, and a goth, when Marvin was murdered by his father At that time, in the UK, all 'Alternatives', well in most cities, we're lumped together, ie, punks, goths, psycobillies, non racist skins, only having two pubs, and one club, one night a week 'What's going on', whilst not our genre, became something of an anthem for us. Getting beaten up, on the regular, for being different, and, trust me, we were, back then, plus every hue you can imagine... We were DEVASTATED 😢🌹‼️

I had no idea about the crossdressing... here in Germany children are free to dress as they want, at my daughter's kindergarten there was a big chest of carnival dresses and often I saw male children dressed as princesses or Elsa etc... Even the teachers for carnival were crossdressed (f.ex. a female teacher was a bearded pirate and a male one was a fairy). Of course a lot of years are passed by since Marvin was a kid. But it's impossible to think about how lucky we are here and now.

Thank you for covering this. This kind of monster is far more common than what we usually see in the headlines. However, they're often overlooked and permitted to continue their behavior, leading to irreparable damage society suffers as whole through the damage it has on the individuals who endure the abuse and the cycle of violence it often perpetuates. We need to do far more to intervene and educate people. It IS our business when we see it happen amd it DOES need to be stopped, as well the victims treated for the effects and assisted to escape.
