An Indiana man out on bail and wearing a GPS ankle monitor for stabbing a customer at a Circle K convenience store where he worked has pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing his ex-girlfriend 51 times and trying to dismember her after he told investigators she made fun of him in texts with a man she was sleeping with.

Marcus Garvin, 33, pleaded guilty last Friday — days before his jury trial was set to begin — to one count of murder in the death of Christie Holt, 30. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison.

It all went down on July 24, 2021, at the Always Inn outside Indianapolis, where the couple had lived for nearly a year.

‘She was just gurgling’

Garvin stabbed Holt that day after he went through her cellphone and discovered texts between her and a man she was sleeping with. In the texts, the two had been making fun of Garvin for not having a job “and/or going anywhere in life,” he told detectives after his arrest, according to an affidavit.

Garvin woke Holt up and confronted her with what he had discovered, and she denied it.

“That made him mad,” the affidavit said, citing Garvin’s interview with police. “He grabbed a small knife and stabbed the side of her neck two times.”

“Stop, Marcus! It wasn’t like that!” Holt said to Garvin, according to the affidavit.

“He said she didn’t really try to call for help because she couldn’t,” the affidavit said. “That’s why he went for the neck; he thinks he maybe hit her vocal chords and she was just gurgling.”
