Domestic violence often escalates. I think I'd take it seriously. He's already shown he's capable of violence. Whether he actually intends further harm or not, anyone who says, "I should have killed you" sounds to me like they have already crossed some moral or internal threshhold about doing others harm.
That said, I don't know exactly what the best course of action is, but I think better safe than sorry. Given there are others in the picture (family), it certainly sounds complicated and very very stressful.
Take care,
