His father was manager of Hunter and Fruit Grove, an orchard, and his mother was an assistant grounds librarian in Vero Beach. Gore never showed signs of abuse from his parents or at school. David was not considered handsome and was not very popular at school. Although the only problems he had at school was that he failed his gym class several times. When Gore was growing up, there is no evidence that he tortured animals, started fires, or wet his bed. These actions can be linked to the majority of serial killers throughout history. Although throughout his life Gore abused drugs and alcohol. David Gore's first encounter with trouble involving girls occurred when he and his cousin Fred Waterfield observed the girls in their physical education class from a balcony above. Gore's first sexual experience was when he witnessed his cousin rape his sister Wendy.
