Gerhardt Konig charged with attempted murder after Pali Puka attack
India
A Hawaii doctor, Gerhardt Konig, is facing attempted murder charges after allegedly attacking his wife Arielle during a hike on Oahu's Pali Puka trail.
In court, his son Emile shared that his dad confessed over FaceTime and asked him to look after his siblings, mentioning Arielle had been "cheating on him" before the attack.
Wife testifies, Konig pleads not guilty
Arielle told the court Gerhardt pushed her near a cliff and hit her with a rock until hikers stepped in.
She admitted to an emotional affair that Gerhardt found out about months ago.
Gerhardt has pleaded not guilty, and his lawyer claims it was an unexpected fight, not attempted murder, arguing self-defense and disputing any talk of syringes.
The case is still ongoing.
