A Hawaii doctor was convicted of attempted manslaughter, in an attack on his wife as they were hiking on a secluded trail in Honolulu. Gerhardt Konig, an anesthesiologist from Maui, attacked his wife on her 36th birthday, as they hiked the Pali Puka trail near Honolulu. Two hikers heard Ms. Konig screaming for help and stopped the attack. Ms. Konig testified that her husband tried to throw her over a steep cliff, and when that did not work, he then struck her in the face and head with a rock, causing her serious injuries. Dr. Konig testified that he was defending himself after his wife attacked him with a rock. The jury rejected the self defense claim and convicted him of attempted manslaughter, which under Hawaii law carries up to 20 years in prison. Prior to the incident, the couple had been experiencing marital problems, with Dr. Konig accusing his wife of having an affair with a co-worker. A sentencing hearing is set for August.
