!!Victims of Bobby's Trial (Nina, Suzanne, Cale, Joyce Dagen)

Bobby's friend (Cale), lawyer (Suzanne), Publicist (Nina) and wife (Joyce), kidnapped by Jigsaw for being complicit in his falsified story about surviving a Jigsaw game.

A trio of people involved with the death of Jeff's son. Timothy Young recklessly ran over Dylan Denlon while drunk driving, causing a horrified Danica Scott to flee at the sight of the scene. As Danica was the only witness and did not testify, presiding judge Halden gave Timothy a light sentence of six months in prison. The game Jigsaw set up for Jeff has him simply run through a gauntlet of these people at his mercy, where he can satisfy his thirst for vengeance by leaving them to die or suffer some pain to save their lives and forgive them before confronting John Kramer.

* AssholeVictim: Being a mugger responsible for the abortion of a baby in one of his muggings makes him deserve everything coming to him. Even though it was later revealed he was pressured into robbing the clinic by [[spoiler:Amanda]] and was very uncomfortable doing so because Jill had been nice to him, Cecil quickly returned to his crooked way of life with no lasting remorse.

* FiveFingerDiscount: Cecil is seen stealing in ''Saw IV'', and at one point even tries robbing a rehabilitation clinic for [[spoiler:Amanda Young,]] an act which ultimately leads to the death of John and Jill's son, Gideon.

* UncertainDoom: His fate is left hanging and never made clear until the seventh film.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Oh, if only he wouldn't have tried to break into the clinic and killing Jill's baby, none of the series might have happened.

Brenda was a woman who worked as a pimp. Therefore, she contacted other young women, made them dependent, and then forced them to work for her as prostitutes. Eventually, she was prosecuted for her crimes. However, she was acquitted due to the assistance of her lawyer, Art Blank.

The girlfriend of Brad and Ryan who manipulated them into committing crimes for her and played them against each other.

A gang of Neo-Nazis that Hoffman decides to test with a trap of his own while on the run from the law. They are the victims of the Horsepower Trap.

* HateCrimesAreSpecialKindOfEvil: As a group of racists, Hoffman tests them for this reason.

A gang of neo-nazis that Hoffman decides to test while on the run from the law. They are the victims of the Horsepower Trap.

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Jigsaw considers him one, for denying customers coverage when it could have saved their lives or eased their sickness. Averted, since it's clear he doesn't enjoy doing so and tries vainly to save everyone he can over the course of Jigsaw's test.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: By the end of the movie, he did learn a thing or two about helping people. [[spoiler:If he had lived, he may have become a better person.]] Even from the beginning of the movie, he clearly takes no pleasure in refusing health coverage to his clients, meets with them personally, and even agrees with Harold calling him a criminal. Once the game begins, he does everything possible to help the other victims, his employees, from the very first test, even being willing to cut himself open to save his lawyer while she's coming at him with a buzzsaw.

* WouldHitAGirl: Well, she ''did'' try to cut him open.

* MrExposition: Serves this purpose in the first film to explain the previous Jigsaw incidents.

!!Dina
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dina2.jpeg]]
->'''Played by:''' Anne Lee Greene

The girlfriend of Brad and Ryan who manipulated them into committing crimes for her and played them against each other.

* AssholeVictim: She played her boyfriends against each other and got them to steal things for her to try and impress her. In the trap, she doesn't hesitate to try and get both of her boyfriends to kill the other so her own life can be saved. This eventually backfires on her as Brad and Ryan take notice of it and decide to sacrifice her instead.
* FanDisservice: Dina is probably the biggest fanservice material in the whole franchise... until she's sawn in half and her intestines spill out, anyway.
* ManipulativeBitch: She manipulated Brad and Ryan to steal for her, and tries to get each of them to kill the other so her own life can be spared.
* NoFullNameGiven: Her surname is never stated.
* OpinionFlipFlop: When Brad starts to get the upper hand, Dina roots for him to kill Ryan. When Ryan starts to turn the tables, she starts rooting for Ryan. This gets them to see that she really doesn't love either of them, which prompts them to let her die.
* SayingTooMuch: Dina makes a mistake that proves fatal to her: she first cheers for Brad when it looks like Brad might win, but then when Ryan starts winning she immediately switches and starts cheering for Ryan. The fact that Dina is willing to "love" whichever man kills the other causes Ryan to realize that she doesn't genuinely love ''either'' man (or she would have been cheering only for the one she loved), so he voluntarily gives up the struggle and convinces Brad to do the same, and Dina is killed instead.
* TooDumbToLive: Had she not rooted for Brad and Ryan to kill each other, she may have lived.

------
* AssholeVictim: Every last one of them.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler:As a result of Evan failing to win his game on time, Kara gets her face disintegrated by a moving tire, Dan's arms and jaw are torn off when Evan's car goes out of control, and Evan himself is sent flying out a windshield with all the skin on his back forcibly torn off his body, bleeding to death. Averted with Jake, who is simply run over by the front of the car Evan is in.]]
* FlayedAlive: In the Horsepower Trap, Evan is superglued into the driver's seat of a car. In order to save himself and the others, he has to pull himself loose by ripping off the skin from his arms and back.

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Being white supremacist skinheads, this is a given.

[[folder:''Saw VI'' Characters]]

[[folder:''Saw'' Characters]]

Lawrence Gordon's unfortunate family held hostage by Zep, whom he has been ordered to murder if the doctor fails to either kill Adam Stanheight or escape by six o clock.

!!David Tapp
->'''Played by:''' Creator/DannyGlover

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tapp2.png]]

-->''"Who said anything about a warrant?"''

The detective was assigned to the Jigsaw case before Eric Matthews. After finding evidence pointing to Lawrence Gordon as the Jigsaw Killer, he began to obsess over arresting him, even after Gordon's alibi proved that he couldn't be the killer. After Jigsaw wounded him and killed his partner, Steven Sing, he was discharged from the force.

* AscendedExtra: Is the main character of the first game, and represents the series in ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight''.
* CowboyCop: Doesn't seem to care too much about following standard police procedure. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero This comes back to bite him when he gets Sing killed and himself discharged]].
* {{Determinator}}: This is the guy who, in the game, managed to rip off the Reverse Bear Trap without a key just by fiddling with the mechanics. Granted it's because he's studied the trap, but nobody else has done that.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: He's DrivenToSuicide in the true ending of the first Saw game rather than being killed by Zep.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Arguably his own fault, since his reckless actions got his partner killed, but taken to ridiculous levels in the video game, where ''everyone'' he saves blames him for their dilemmas.
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: During his shootout with Zep, a mere hospital orderly. Partly justified in that Tapp had been long discharged from the force and suffered major SanitySlippage in his reclusive lifestyle.
* MadeOfIron: When he nearly corners Zep in Gordon's apartment, the man ''smashes an entire glass vase apart over Tapp's head'' before making his escape. Tapp is barely fazed and continues his pursuit of Zep.
* RabidCop: His recklessness results in his partner killed, his throat nearly slashed and he is dismissed from the force. Plus, his subsequent obsession with trailing Gordon blinded him so thoroughly to alternative suspects that he actually ''saw Allison's and Diana's captor inside Gordon's house'' and did nothing about it.
* ScaryBlackMan: He has his moments, especially regarding the lengths he's willing to go to catch Jigsaw.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: He's determined to take down his target, and doesn't care about following police procedure to do it. But given [[SerialKiller who]] [[TheChessmaster his target]] [[EvilGenius is]], you can't really blame him.
* SlashedThroat: Jigsaw slashes his throat with a concealed blade. He survives, albeit with a large scar across his neck and partially damaged vocal cords.
* SpannerInTheWorks: He gets the distinct honor of screwing up two of Jigsaw's games, the first being when he and Sing bust in to rescue Jeff from the drill chair, the second when he runs in guns-a-blazing to fight off Zep from killing Gordon's family.
* TurnInYourBadge: Happens offscreen. He was discharged from the police force after his actions inadvertently got his partner killed and himself severely injured.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Degenerating into a reclusive maniac significantly weakened his survival skills, and he is ultimately felled by the much younger and inexperienced Zepp after a lengthy struggle.

!!Steven Sing
[[quoteright:328:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/capture_446.PNG]]

-> '''Played by:''' Ken Leung

A homicide detective who worked for the Metropolitan Police Department. He was also Tapp's close friend and partner but was tragically killed in a disastrous raid on Jigsaw's lair. [[MyGreatestFailure Tapp never got over his death.]]

* TakeAThirdOption: He initially plays along with Jigsaw's orders to find the keys for Jeff's Drill Chair game in his lair. After realizing the nigh impossibility of the task, he simply shoots at the drills and saves the man.
* ATragedyOfImpulsiveness: He raids Jigsaw's lair with Tapp without a permit or backup and, in the ensuing struggle, tries to pursue him on his own. That didn't end well.
* YourHeadAsplode: In his pursuit of Jigsaw, he trips a wire linked to the triggers of four shotguns above his head, which end up shooting him.
* YouNeedToGetLaid: Sarcastically says this to Tapp when he notices how unhealthily he investigates the Jigsaw Killer's case overnight. However, he changes his tune when Tapp makes a discovery that leads them right to the killer.

!!Alison and Diana Gordon
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alison_2.jpg]]

-> '''Played by:''' Monica Potter, Makenzie Vega

Lawrence Gordon's unfortunate family held hostage by Zep, whom he has been ordered to murder if the doctor fails to either kill Adam Stanheight or escape by six o clock.
----
* AllThereInTheManual: WordOfGod explains Alison divorced Lawrence and took Diana with her after his major SanitySlippage following his survival.
* BreakTheCutie: For Diana, an 8-year-old, it doesn't get worse than being held hostage by a sadistic monster and not knowing where your father is.
* MamaBear: When Gordon fails his game, Alison isn't having [[StupidEvil Zep's sadistic shit]] and fights him with all her might to protect her child before Tapp bursts into the scene.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Diana often wonders why Lawrence is almost never at home. Of course, his wife doesn't really know either.

!!Carla Song
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_20211012_063357.jpg]]

A medical student at the Angel of Mercy Hospital, where she was educated by the renowned oncologist Dr. Lawrence Gordon, whom she had an affair with.
----

!!Michael Marks
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/michaelmarkshd.png]]

->'''Played by:''' Noam Jenkins

A former druggie, now police informant for Eric. He's introduced as the victim of the Death Mask trap in ''Saw II'', kickstarting the plot when Jigsaw calls out for Eric at the scene of his death.
------
* DisproportionateRetribution: Jigsaw kidnaps Michael because he despises his role as an informant, describing him as a "voyeur." While the role of a criminal informant can be dirty, especially when it concerns someone like Eric, an informant can be invaluable in assisting law enforcement in saving lives and catching criminals. Plus, the fact John describes Michael as such is [[{{Hypocrite}} pretty rich]], [[InsaneTrollLogic considering he spies extensively on his victim's personal lives before testing them.]]
* EyeScream: The key to his Death Mask is hidden behind one of his eyes, which Jigsaw encourages to gouge out with a dinky scalpel given to him.
* RageQuit: He gives up midway into his test, angrily throwing away his scalpel and screaming for help in vain until he dies.
* RapidFireNo: Shortly before the Death Mask closes.
* TheStoolPigeon: He's a criminal informant for Eric.

!!Dr. Adam Heffner
->'''Played by:''' James Van Patten

A forensic pathologist who examines victims of the Jigsaw killings found by the police.
----
* TheCoroner: He plays a far smaller role in comparison to other characters who fit this trope, and he was first introduced in ''IV'', but he's the one who examined the cause of death of all the dead Jigsaw victims found by the police from the first movie to ''3D''.
* ImpromptuTracheotomy: [[spoiler:How Hoffman kills him in ''3D''.]]

!!Dan Erickson
[[quoteright:220:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ericksonhospital.jpg]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/MarkRolston

An FBI agent and the superior of Perez and Strahm.

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler:In ''VI'', he has his jugular vein cut out by Hoffman and is left writhing on the floor. After killing Perez and Sachi, Hoffman then douses him with gasoline and burns him and the whole room down.]]
* PoliceAreUseless: Averted. He buys into the deception Strahm is the new Jigsaw killer for about five minutes before plotting against the real mastermind.
* ProperlyParanoid: Having known Strahm for years and the extremely suspicious circumstances surrounding the Seth Baxter case Strahm was investigating, he was wary of Hoffman before the latter began framing Strahm.
* SlashedThroat: Courtesy of [[spoiler: Hoffman]].
* TooDumbToLive: Despite being fully aware that he's in the presence of a very dangerous and intelligent SerialKiller, he isn't prepared at all for how Hoffman might react to being uncovered on the spot, unlike Perez. [[spoiler:As a result, Hoffman easily gets the drop on Erickson before he can join the ensuing fight with Perez.]]

!!Seth Baxter
[[quoteright:311:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sethbaxterhd_0.png]]
->'''Played by:''' Joris Jarsky

The boyfriend and murderer of Hoffman's sister. Hoffman used his knowledge of Jigsaw to kill him and frame Jigsaw. When the real Jigsaw found out, he blackmailed Hoffman into becoming his accomplice.
------

!!Matt Gibson
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/matt_gibsonhd.png]]
->'''Played by:''' Chad Donella

An Internal Affairs officer whom Jill specifically requests protection from with Hoffman out for her head.
------
* ByTheBookCop: One of the more upstanding cops seen in the series. He previously turned in some of Hoffman's cronies for corruption and is reluctant to help Jill unless she follows the rules. Due to his selfless nature and history with Hoffman, he's the only police officer who Jill believes isn't complicit with Hoffman.
* GoodIsNotNice: While Gibson is genuinely a heroic figure, he repeatedly expresses his disdain for Jill due to her involvement in a murderous conspiracy.
* YoureInsane: He's exasperated when he finds out Jill's role in placing the Reverse Bear Trap 2.0 on Hoffman.

!!Edgar Munsen
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/edgarmunsen.jpg]]
->'''Played by:''' Josiah Black

A meth addict and criminal informant for Brad Halloran. He is introduced in the opening of the film in a delirious state claiming he must do what Jigsaw says or he'll die. Edgar is promptly sniped by an unknown figure and put into a coma for the rest of the film.

* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:Halloran does ''sincerely'' raise the possibility Edgar did not murder Logan's wife, but due to Logan's thirst for vengeance against the detective, he does not consider what he says.]]
* AssholeVictim: A meth addict and remorseless criminal who [[spoiler:previously murdered Logan Nelson's wife and got away with it thanks to Halloran]]. Suffice to say, he deserves everything that happens to him. That said, [[spoiler: Logan directly murdering him despite him doing what he was told [[DeceptiveDisciple is the antithesis of John's noble intentions]]]].
* ButtMonkey: He's introduced as a delirious victim of Jigsaw, gets sniped into a coma, and is later [[spoiler: murdered by Logan while unconscious]].
* DeceasedFallGuyGambit: [[spoiler:Logan makes it appear as though Halloran killed Edgar after murdering him. As Halloran is murdered by Logan not long after, he uses Halloran as a posthumous figure to cover his tracks while he continues Jigsaw's legacy.]]
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:His murder of Logan's wife is a main motivating factor to why Logan decides to take up the dormant mantle of Jigsaw.]]

!!Ryan
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ryann.jpg]]
->'''Played by:''' Paul Braunstein, Ryan Manning (young)

A victim of the barn game and the tertiary protagonist of ''Jigsaw''. While he's no saint, Ryan reluctantly takes a leadership role in the game with the questionable mental states of his fellow victims.

[[folder:''Spiral'' Characters]]
!!Ezekiel "Zeke" Banks
[[quoteright:280:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spiral_od_d28_06227_cr3_rgb_scaled.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Creator/ChrisRock

The protagonist of ''Spiral'', Zeke is a detective who's ostracized by the department for his role in turning in Peter Dunleavy after Peter intentionally committed a grave crime. Zeke is reluctantly put in charge of the investigation of a new Jigsaw copycat by being the first on the scene of the murder of his colleague, Marv Bozwick.
-----
* BigNo:[[spoiler: After Marcus is gunned down and Schenk makes his escape.]]
* CowboyCop: Zeke is prone to risk-taking and disobeying standard protocol to get results.
* DirtyCop: Averted, unlike every other cop in his department. Zeke is one of the more upstanding and noble cops you can find despite his abrasive attitude. [[spoiler: This is the reason why Schenk wants to specifically recruit him as his partner in crime.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: He's a very sarcastic and loudmouthed guy, much like Adam from the first film.
* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler: He is visibly shaken upon confronting Schenk as the Spiral killer, calling out his betrayal.]]
* EveryoneHasStandards: Despite the fact the entire police department treats him like garbage, Zeke does not derive satisfaction from any of their deaths, including monsters like Fitch, and does all he can to try to save their lives.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He's hated by the other cops in his department for turning one of them in.
* InsaneTrollLogic: In a conversation with Schenk about leads on the new killer, he claims Jigsaw and his "disciples" by extension don't target cops while debating their identity. Given John and Hoffman's crimes are very well-publicized by this time, it's unknown why Zeke would say this when they've personally targeted many detectives, officers and FBI special agents.
** That being said, it's possible he meant the original Jigsaw didn't ''[[ExactWords exclusively]]'' target cops like the Spiral killer does.
* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: After a shootout with a gangbanger with possible connections to one of their leads on the Spiral Killer, Zeke douses his maimed leg with alcohol and beats him when the thug plays coy.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: Apart from being ostracized by the force, his act of turning Peter in also ruined his personal life and his wife divorced him from the strain.
** Telling [[spoiler: Schenk/Emmerson]] to stay quiet after his DirtyCop partner shoots his father directly leads to [[spoiler: Schenk killing his own father years later.]]
* OlderHeroVsYoungerVillain: [[spoiler:He was already a cop when Schenk was still a child.]]
* TheParagon: Zeke's not perfect but he's staunchly law-abiding and non-corrupt as a cop. [[spoiler: Schenk praises him as the best of the best and wants to recruit him because of this.]]

!!William Schenk
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spiral_max_mingehlla_detective_william_1620382077.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Creator/MaxMinghella

A relatively new cop that's assigned as a partner to Zeke on the new Jigsaw homicides.
-----
* ByTheBookCop: To Zeke's CowboyCop.
* FlayedAlive: [[spoiler:He is kidnapped and brutally skinned alive by the Spiral Killer in a departure from the Jigsaw M.O.]]
* NewMeat: Of the city's police department. Zeke even refers to him as such.

!!Marcus Banks
[[quoteright:280:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marcus_spiral_jacket.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Creator/SamuelLJackson

Zeke's father. Once the chief of police, he's since stepped down following a brutal altercation with officer Fitch over leaving his son to die out of spite. Due to his son's disgraced status, Marcus' relationship with him is strained but, nevertheless, tries to support him with the Spiral Killer investigation.
-----
* AlasPoorVillain: Despite everything Marcus has done throughout his career, his death is painted in a somber light. Having made the selfless choice of sending Zeke after catching the fleeing killer over attending to him, Marcus consequently dies and Zeke is completely distraught over his death.
* AssholeVictim: While Marcus isn't as openly horrible as some of the other cops in the precinct, he was once a deeply corrupt police chief that enabled the corruption of other officers like Fitch and Peter. He also had no qualms about engaging in PoliceBrutality himself. As a result, he is a case of this when he dies but see AlasPoorVillain above.
* BeardOfEvil: He had a nice full stache during his days as a corrupt police chief.
* DeadpanSnarker: Zeke takes it after him. Since he's played by Samuel L. Jackson, this is also a given.
* DirtyCop: Revealed to be one during his time as police chief, covering up crimes committed by other corrupt cops.
* PapaWolf: He is this to Zeke. During the flashback scene that shows Zeke getting shot due to his calls for backup being ignored not once, but ''three times'', Marcus is rightfully furious, laying into the other officers at the scene. And upon learning that Fitch, the cop nearest Zeke’s location at the time, was the one who ignored his calls for backup, Marcus attacks him for putting his son’s life at risk.
-->'''Marcus:''' Where the fuck were all of you, huh?! My son called for backup ''three times in 8 minutes'', and none of you motherfuckers could get here?! Nobody?! Nothing? Crickets. Alright, this is what I’m gonna do; I’m gonna call dispatch, and find out who was closest available, and when I do, I’m going to take this gun and shoot that motherfucker. We clear?\\
(''{{Beat}} as Fitch looks away and clears his throat'')\\
'''Marcus:''' Fitch, it was you?! (''jumps him and starts pistol whipping him'') You fucking with my son again?! God damn you, son of a bitch! (''is pulled off of Fitch by other officers'') Get off me! You’re done, motherfucker, you hear me?! You’re fucking done! Don’t let me see your face again!
* ParentalNeglect: During his childhood, Marcus had a distant father who only cared about his work. He would later treat Zeke the same way, rarely giving him fatherly advice and being fairly distant.
* PoliceBrutality: As chief, he had no qualms roughing up random people [[EvilIsPetty if he was in a bad mood.]] When Zeke nearly dies as a result of Fitch, he also threatens he'll kill whoever was responsible for denying his son backup. When he finds it out it was Fitch, [[PapaWolf he]] [[KickTheSonOfABitch beats the hell out of him.]]
* SoProudOfYou: While usually cold or dismissive to Zeke, he admits in his delirious final moments that Zeke always did the right thing compared to the rest of his department.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: [[spoiler: Schenk's trap forces Marcus into a position where he brandishes a weapon directly at the SWAT team racing to their location. They waste no time completely unloading their assault rifles and shotguns into Marcus, who was already bleeding to death.]]

!!Angie Garza
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spiral_still1.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Creator/MarisolNichols

Zeke's boss and a captain of the force. During the days of Marcus as police chief, she was his closest cohort in covering up the brutal and unjust actions of the police department.
-----
* AssholeVictim: Downplayed. While Angie was a CorruptCop deeply complicit in a conspiracy to allow police corruption to run rampant, she is one of the less malevolent of the bunch. Her absolutely ''horrific'' death was fairly disproportionate, to say the least.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler: Her game forces her to sever her spinal cord by pressing the back of her neck into a blade far enough to stop a contraption from pouring boiling wax onto her face. As she fails, she literally gets her face melted off before suffocating to death.]]
* DirtyCop: She was the number two of Marcus in a large-scale conspiracy to grant police officers more power regardless of what they did.
* EveryoneHasStandards: While she's reluctant to put Zeke in charge of the new Jigsaw homicides, Angie lashes out at the disdain the other cops have for her decision, stating a life has been lost and to get over themselves and catch the killer.
* JerkassHasAPoint: She calls out Zeke on his stubbornness on not following police protocol, stating regardless of his circumstances, it jeopardizes his life and creates even more problems.

!!Marv "Boz" Bozwick
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/27fcbe712d43e860092d8a8aa5b5aa01530114ca.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Dan Petronijevic

A detective from the Metropolitan Police Department. He was the Spiral Killer's first victim. Notably, while corrupt, Boz was said to be a kind man, and his death is a large part of why Zeke is so determined in stopping the killer.
-----
* AssholeVictim: Despite being one of the only cops who were nice to Zeke, he was still a corrupt cop whose false testimonies put innocent people in prison.
* DirtyCop: He has taken the witness stand in court many times, and his lies have put innocent people in jail.
* LudicrousGibs: All that's left of Boz after his test is unrecognizable gore splattered across the subway tracks.
* PetTheDog: He was possibly the only one in the department who remained friends with Zeke, even after he turned one of them in. He used to go to games with him and play with his son.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He dies in the opening, but his death kickstarts the plot and we retroactively learn more about him.
* TongueTrauma: Taken UpToEleven. His trap has his body hoist up into the air, his tongue trapped by a device. Boz must jump off a platform to avoid getting hit by a subway train, losing his tongue in the process. He does so, but too late, and he not only takes his whole tongue with him but gets ran over anyways.

!!Fitch
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fitch.png]]
-> '''Played by:''' Richard Zeppieri

A detective from the Metropolitan Police Department. He was the Spiral Killer's second victim.
-----
* AssholeVictim: The biggest in the whole movie. Fitch was a sociopathic monster that once murdered a man for flipping him off when ordered to raise his hands. He also treated Zeke with nothing but contempt and once nearly left him to die out of spite. It's telling that of all the cops that die in the movie, Zeke feels absolutely nothing for Fitch upon discovering his remains.
* DirtyCop: And how. Besides the murder mentioned above, he also refused to provide backup for Zeke during a shootout as revenge for turning another cop in, which almost got Zeke killed.
* DirtyCoward: While feeling smugly satisfied with denying Zeke backup, Fitch turns into a nervous wreck fidgeting around suspiciously when he witnesses Marcus' wrath at the situation.
* EvilIsPetty: UpToEleven. He once murdered a man for ''flipping him off.''
* {{Fingore}}: Fitch is trapped in a tub slowly filling up with water, with exposed electrified wires hung over the edge, and a motor binding his fingers down. To escape, he must bite a mechanism that'll activate the motor, which will rip all of his fingers off. He ultimately can't do so in time and ends up electrocuted to death.
* HighVoltageDeath: He fails to remove his fingers in time, and thus, is fried to a crisp when the water in his trap reaches the electrical cords.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's always treating Zeke like shit, due to him turning another cop in. He once refused to provide backup for Zeke during a shootout, despite being the nearest cop to him, which almost got Zeke killed.
* NoFullNameGiven: His first name is never stated.
* PragmaticVillainy: Despite refusing Zeke backup, the second shots are fired, he has an OhCrap moment and rushes to his location. This isn't because he cares about Zeke, but because Fitch knows [[PapaWolf Marcus]] will go ballistic (i.e, kill him) if his son died because of him.

!!Peter "Pete" Dunleavy
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/peterdunleavyjpg.jpg]]
-> '''Played by:''' Patrick [=McManus=]

A former officer from the Metropolitan Police Department, who was discharged after Zeke turned him in for the murder of Charlie Emmerson. He's since been reduced to a pathetic bum living under a church and drowning his sorrows with booze.
-----
* TheAtoner: After becoming homeless and miserable, he seems to have lapsed into this after living under a church. He claims he seeks God's forgiveness regularly and has a serious HeelRealization about how out of control he and the department was. That said, it's made clear he still deeply resents Zeke for turning him in, indicating a certain degree of lasting irresponsibility.
* AssholeVictim: His death at the hands of the Spiral Killer is horrifying, but he previously murdered Charlie Emmerson to prevent him from testifying against a fellow officer. And for all his gestures at atonement, Peter still remained a bitter asshole to Zeke and never realized he was in the right in testifying against Peter. [[spoiler: This trope is even lampshaded by Schenk, expressing Peter had it coming for ruining not only his life but Zeke's as well.]]
* BlatantLies: He makes a pathetic attempt to justify shooting Charlie Emmerson by saying it was in self-defense.
--> '''Zeke''': The ''witness'' pulled a gun on you?
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Besides Angie, he gets arguably the worst of the victims in the movie. Peter is chained up above a platform in front of a machine that will grind up rounds of glass bottles and pelt their shards at his body. The only way he can survive this is if Zeke finds the key to free him, but he's slowed down by being forced to take cover between the grinder taking breaks and firing. Peter agonizingly takes multiple rounds of this before expiring.
* DirtyCop: Ex-dirty cop. He killed Charlie Emmerson to prevent him from testifying against another officer, then tried to make it look like he shot him in self-defense. Zeke didn't buy it and turned him in, getting him kicked out of the force.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:His murder of Charlie Emmerson made his son William take revenge against dirty cops like him as the Spiral Killer.]]
