In a shocking and bizarre incident, doctor Gerhardt Konig, an anesthesiologist in Hawaii, is under arrest after police say he struck his wife with a rock and tried to push her off a cliff after the duo got involved in a heated argument as she refused to take a picture with him.

The wife, whose identity has not been disclosed, survived the deadly fall a few days ago. However, the Honolulu Police Department said in a statement that she is in critical condition and sustained several injuries. Dr. Konig reportedly threw her off a hiking trail and hit her head with a rock, as reported by the cops.

As per PEOPLE Magazine, while it wasn’t clear how fast the women fell, the couple were reportedly at the Pali Lookout area in Hawaii, which stands at an elevation of 1,200 feet, which clearly means the wind was beyond the safe levels. In addition, Konig also allegedly attempted to poke the woman with two syringes before she was pushed.

As per Gerhardt Konig’s LinkedIn profile, he is a partner at The Anesthesia Medical Group in Maui. However, the state’s new reports claimed that he has been suspended from practice. In addition, as per KPTV, the 46-year-old doctor was employed by an independent contractor and provided medical services to facilities on Maui, including Maui Memorial Medical Center. The charges for this case against the doctor remain pending as updates about it are awaited.

It is sad to witness that, in modern times, couples live more in the virtual world than in the real world. With increased competition, happiness has become an illusion. Their lives are not fulfilled if they are not portrayed on social media.

As per the outlet GQ, relationship coach Jordan Gray confirms that numerous couples struggle with navigating their online presence and its potential to cause tension. For example, people often feel insecure when their partner likes posts from others or neglects to engage with their content. The whole concept of validation comes into play and makes things bitter. 

A lot of other couples also control each other’s lives by keeping tabs on their social media accounts, especially on who they talk to and who they do not. The online dating scenario has made it easy for people to take others for granted and disrespect them. Likewise, increased reports of infidelity and trust issues due to lying and cheating on their spouses have resurfaced on social media.

Several online adult sites like OnlyFans have also resulted in brutal criminal activities in the U.S., where a lot of hackers and human traffickers with a motive pretend to be models and chat with people on prevalent platforms like Instagram with the agenda to trap them in the dangerous web of lies by luring them with easy money.

Therefore, as the internet has become a tool of necessary evil in our society, the only way to utilize it in a balanced manner, especially in relationships, is by setting rules around social media use; couples can protect themselves from unnecessary stress and focus on building a stronger connection without the distractions and pitfalls of constant online monitoring.
