Deputy Prosecutor Joel Garner finally questioned Gerhardt Konig about the alleged attempted murder of his wife during the final 22 minutes of his 2 1/2 hour cross-examination in Honolulu, Hawaii, today (Thursday, April 2).
Konig, 47, and an anesthesiologist in Maui, has been in jail since last March after a hiker called 911 after hearing his wife screaming for help and seeing him on top of her hitting her face with rocks. Konig is currently on trial for attempted second-degree murder, and he testified in his own defense on Wednesday (April 1).
01:21 “The website even told you, ‘does that make the hike dangerous? You decide’ is that right?”
03:24 “Wouldn’t you agree that that path is right on the edge of the cliff?” “Yeah, it’s very, very close to the edge of the cliff.”
03:42 “Nothing to hold on to, right?” “For for this part of the trail, not much. I mean, there’s some brush on the other side, but you have to really watch your step.”
06:00 ” They would be as dead falling anywhere along this trail because the cliff is extremely high.”
06:20 “You testified this morning, and you said — please do correct me if I’m wrong here — that you were not sexually demanding of Arielle. Is that correct?” “That’s correct.” “That is your testimony.”
12:37 “Okay, let’s go back to the hike.”
13:39 “So you testify that you have this argument, you separate, and then you come back together, right?” “Yes.” “You take this selfie right by the cliff, correct?” “Yes.” “And then you testified that Arielle pushed you, right?” “Yes.” “And you testified that you could barely hold on, right?” “I, I, I I almost went off the cliff.”
14:37 “And then you say that Arielle pulled you onto the ground, right?” “That’s correct.” “You’re bigger than Arielle, right?” “Yes.”
14:49 “At the time of the incident, you had at least 20 pounds on it, right” “Yeah, roughly 20 pounds.” “You’re stronger than her, right?” “Probably.” “You’re a doctor, so you know that men generally are stronger than women, correct?” ‘Yes.” “It’s just a scientific matter testosterone, right?” “That’s true.” “But you testify that Arielle managed to pull you to the ground, and she pulled you on top of her, right?” “That’s correct.” “Okay, then you testified that Arielle wouldn’t let you go from on top of her, right?” “That’s correct.” “You testified that she wrapped her legs around you, right?” “She wrapped at least one leg around me.”
16:18 “You testified that Arielle took this rock and hit you in the face, isn’t that, right?”
21:13 “This is you one day after Arielle hits you really good with this rock, isn’t it?” “That’s right.”
