Dennis Carradine was a robber and a carjacker. He was once assumed to be responsible for Ben Parker's death.[3]
History
When Carradine robbed a fight promoter, Peter let the robber escape as a subtle way of getting revenge against the fight promoter who cheated him out of money, thinking was "not his job" to stop him. Flint Marko accidentally shot Ben when Carradine bumped into him trying to get into the car. Carradine, a friend and accomplice of Marko, stole the car and left Marko behind to take the fall. Peter chased him to a warehouse with an unseen underground station underneath him, where Carradine tripped and fell from a window to his death. Marko, who became the Sandman, admitted to Peter that he needed the money he stole to help his daughter who was sick, and was forgiven by Peter.[3][1]

Trivia
- The retconning of Dennis Carradine into the accomplice of Uncle Ben's killer, who turned out to be the Sandman, rather than the killer himself was one of the main criticisms Spider-Man 3 received, as most fans feel like this undermines the emotive talk scene between Peter Parker and Aunt May in Spider-Man 2, where Peter admits his fault in Uncle Ben's death by letting Carradine escape. With the retcon, it can be seen that ultimately, Peter was not responsible at all and even if he had stopped Carradine, Flint Marko could have still killed Ben due to someone else distracting him.
