BLOODY BODYCAM: JEALOUS DR. FORCES ENGINEER WIFE TO DEADLY CLIFF

Gory body cam footage released of Arielle Konig being helps down the O'ahu's Pali Puka trail after being smashed in the head by a rock.

It's part of the attempted murder trial of Maui anesthesiologist, Dr. Gerhardt Konig. 

Each side is describing O'ahu's Pali Puka trail, but have different stories of what happened there almost exactly a year ago.

Arielle says her husband dragged her toward the cliff’s edge, attempted to inject her with “an unknown substance” using a syringe, and hit her “repeatedly on the head” with a rock. 

Konig claims he was NOT trying to kill his wife, and acted in self-defense after Arielle attacked him when he threatened to expose an alleged affair with a married co-worker.

Jurors hear a witness's 911 call, and watch that body camera footage from a responding officer.  Arielle's brutal injuries visible as blood pours from her head wounds. 

Konig's adult son is expected to testify about a video call his father made after the attack that prosecutors are calling a confession.
