In his closing argument, prosecutor Joel Garner said Gerhardt Konig was “obsessed” with his wife’s emotional affair with a co-worker when he tried to shove her from a cliff on the Pali Puka Trail, northeast of Honolulu.
When that failed, Garner said, he tried to stab her with a syringe and bashed her head with a rock. The attack ended when two hikers came upon the scene, he said.
“The only thing that got him to stop was being caught red-handed,” Garner said.
If it’s a crime of passion, why did he bring a syringe on a hike?
Among other things, this doctor is a walking stereotype. Obvi he wasn’t there on day 1 aka “do no harm” day.
