Mega Edition: The National Forest Serial Killer (Part 1-2) (9/18/26)

Gary Michael Hilton was a drifter and convicted serial killer who became known as the “National Forest Serial Killer” after targeting people in remote wilderness areas across Georgia, Florida and North Carolina. His known killing spree unfolded in 2007 and early 2008, with victims including elderly hikers John and Irene Bryant in North Carolina, Cheryl Dunlap in Florida and 24-year-old Meredith Emerson in Georgia. Hilton preyed on people in isolated hiking areas, abducted them, robbed them and in several cases used their bank cards before killing them and attempting to conceal or mutilate their bodies. He pleaded guilty to murdering Emerson after investigators linked him to her disappearance and found evidence in his van, and he later admitted killing the Bryants.

Hilton was also convicted in Florida of kidnapping and murdering Cheryl Dunlap, whose decapitated body was found in the Apalachicola National Forest in December 2007. A Florida jury unanimously recommended the death penalty, and he was sentenced to death in 2011. He received additional life sentences for the Bryant murders, while his Georgia sentence for Emerson’s murder was life imprisonment. Investigators also examined Hilton in connection with other unsolved disappearances and killings, including cases involving people who vanished near hiking areas, though not all of those suspicions resulted in charges. His crimes stood out for their predatory use of isolated public lands, where he could approach victims with little chance of witnesses and then use the surrounding wilderness to hide evidence and bodies.
