HONOLULU (KHON2) — In a Maui courtroom today, Arielle Konig, the wife of a Maui doctor accused of trying to kill her, has withdrawn her request for a restraining order.
She told the judge she no longer needs the temporary protection because her husband remains behind bars with no chance of release.

“My client believes at this time the TRO is not necessary to prevent further harm because he’s being held without bail and there’s no possibility of release at this time,” said her attorney, Brandon Segal.
In her original petition, Arielle detailed not just the assault back in March, but a history of abuse, including accusations of sexual assault and controlling behavior.
