I wouldn't call it power, so much as I would aggression. Killing someone isn't a powerful thing, it's something that's full of cowardice

What’s the source of the aggression? Every killing has a motive, and this one is text book power and control. She rejected him, and he couldn’t control the outcome so he killed her. It’s all buried in power dynamics, control and awful emotional discipline.

That's literally aggression.

I feel like you're too caught up in the chicken/egg here, these things are intrinsically linked - frustration over rejection and power differential lead to an aggressive, deadly outburst - it's not either/or

All aggression has a source, to understand what we do things and fix them… we need to know why.
