殺すぞ; 殺してやる
殺すぞ (korosu zo)
殺してやる (koroshite yaru)
Since it is quite apparent that "I" refers to the speaker and "you" to the addressee, you don't have to translate them. These are quite often heard in TV dramas and movies, too.

私はあなたを殺します。
私 = I
は = particle
あなた = you
を = particle
殺します = will kill (from 殺す, to kill)
There are, of course, numerous other ways to say this, but this seems to me to be the most likely candidate in your case.

Maybe it is the student who thought of it. I remember using あなたを殺してもいいですか as an example. I had taken it from Ishikawa Sayuri's Amagi goe (where it does not have the 'mo' partcle. My teacher became rather red when she heard it ^_^
