Doctor Allegedly Tried to Kill His Wife on Hawaii Trail

A prominent doctor attempted to push his wife off a cliff and struck her head multiple times with a rock while hiking a trail in Oahu, Hawaii, police say. Dr. Gerhardt Konig reportedly attacked his wife Arielle on her birthday after she refused to take a photo with him. Police say two women who reportedly stumbled on the attack chased off the doctor who fled on foot. After a 7-hour manhunt, Konig was found on a roadway near the hiking trail arrested for attempted murder.

She is suffering from multiple facial and head injuries but the broken heart from the betrayal has to be the most devastating.

He planned to kill her. He just didn’t get into an argument and spontaneously tried to kill her in a heat of passion. She probably didn’t want to selfie near a cliff because she sensed that he was up to no good. What doctor carries syringes on a short hike?

Dude is having an affair and getting rid of his wife cuz he's too much of a coward to just divorce her and give her half of his wealth. Heard this story a ZILLION times

The photo he wanted was dangerously close to the edge and wife said no. He was mad cuz he was just gonna push her off but couldn’t. Thats when the syringes came out. Thank God she survived.

It’s so frustrating to imagine thinking you met the perfect person for you and then he tries to kill you on your birthday 😭😭😭

The most dangerous demons are the ones that look like normal people with accolades behind their names smh..I pray she will make a full recovery.

He was mad because she "Didnt want to take a picture" Yeah NO he planned this why the heck is he carrying syringes 😒 He was trying to get rid of his wife and make it look like a accident for some deranged reason 🤔

[RussianElvis]

On her birthday too?! This is another kind of evil, poor woman 😢

Proud of the women who helped her. He could’ve easily turned on them but sisterhood was stronger than fear.

Thank God for those 2 women who were at the right place at the right time. If not, we would see him crying on TV about how she got hit by a rock and would see a different narrative. I hope she’s able to trust again. This must be so traumatic. And her birthday at that?? SMH

Dear Lady, please make it through. Praying from India. Dr. Frankenstein should be put behind bars.

[rickjones]

He was Suspended ??? The guy is gonna rot in Prison for the rest of his pathetic life.

Thank goodness for the women who saved Arielle from this deranged monster.

The dude has probably got a secret girlfriend ( or boyfriend) on the dude, it's called a divorce and you don't go to prison over a divorce.

SPECULATION: I bet he was trying to get her to pose in a dangerous spot, like over the railing so he could easily push her and make it look like an accidental fall. She refused to take the pose because it was dangerous so he decided to smash her in the head and throw her over the cliff (injury would be hidden by fall). WHY he did it, I have no idea.

She's gonna have an amazing support system! Every woman in the World. ❤❤❤❤

The doctor is evil enough to plan his wife's birthday as her end day. This seemed pre-mediated rather than his excuse "his wife didn't want to take a photo with him".

[knux]

syringes?? thats such an ironic thing to attack her with. if he were a dentist would he have attacked her with toothbrushes?

[PaiviProject]

Omg. What a awful man and a husband. I am so glad he got caught and I hope he will pay dearly for this. I also hope the wife will be okay and recover from her injuries.
