David Joseph Carpenter (born May 6, 1930), also called the Trailside Killer, is an American serial killer and sex offender who stalked, raped, and murdered at least eight people in the San Francisco Bay Area between 1979 and 1981. He targeted lone individuals in a variety of state parks and used a .38 caliber handgun in all but one of the killings. Carpenter began committing sexual assaults at age 15. He was admitted to a mental hospital at age 17 where a psychologist measured his IQ at 125. After his release his crimes escalated to kidnapping, carjacking, stalking, and attempted murder. From August 1979 through May 1981, Carpenter murdered at least eight hikers in Northern California. He would hide along tree lines on secluded trails and wait for his target to approach and then would restrain, rape, and sometimes torture them until either stabbing or shooting them to death. According to pathologists, Carpenter would get so much enjoyment from tormenting his victims that he would lose his stutter. Physical descriptions of the killer initially varied until a survivor pinpointed Carpenter. In 1984, he was convicted of murdering two women in Santa Cruz County and sentenced to die in the gas chamber. Four years later he was convicted of five additional murders in Marin County and was confirmed to be responsible for an eighth death in San Francisco through DNA evidence. At 95 years of age as of 2025, Carpenter is the oldest inmate imprisoned in California.
