US EditionHawaii doctor accused of trying to kill his wife on a hiking trail seeks bail
- Gerhardt Konig, a 46-year-old anesthesiologist from Hawaii, has been charged with attempted murder following an incident in March where he allegedly assaulted his spouse during a hike near Honolulu.
- The attack followed ongoing marital issues, including a December accusation by Konig against his wife of having an affair, and his wife filing for a restraining order and divorce.
- During the hike on the Pali Puka trail, Konig grabbed his wife, pushed her toward a cliff edge, tried to inject her with a syringe, and repeatedly bashed her head with a rock, witnessed by two women who called 911.
- Prosecutors opposed bail, citing Konig’s prior attempt to flee, his admission to his adult son that he tried to kill his stepmother, and the realistic prospect of life imprisonment.
- Konig has remained in custody without bail following his March 28 indictment, with a judge expected to review his bail request at a hearing on Tuesday as he intends to stay in Hawaii to face the charges.
