History Woobie / Saw

* '''Hank''', '''Addy''' and '''Allen''' in ''Film/SawVI'' are probably the biggest victims of DisproportionateRetribution in the whole franchise. Hank is guilty of being heavy smoker despite his health issues, which in no way justifies him being slowly crushed to death by a trap he had no way to escape from. Addy and Allen are trapped only to fuel William's guilt (they had no control on his decisions whatsoever), with Allen being a young but lonely man and Addy a frail woman with a loving family. In the end, Allen suffers a painful, bloody death by hanging while Addy survives, but the whole ordeal and the knowledge that she's alive thanks to Allen's death are a huge trauma to deal with. When she reappears in ''FilmSaw3D'' as a part of the survivors' self-help group, she's still shaken.

** Of all of The Pederson Project's members, Gabriela is the most sympathetic one to both Amanda and John from the word go, and after John discovers the scam's true nature, it's immediately clear why: she's a hopeless drug addict who was likely roped into the job by her dealer, Mateo. During the game, Amanda easily relates to her as she used to be a drug addict herself, and John clearly had some level of empathy for her too. They're clearly happy to have Gabriela taken to a hospital after she passes her test... and Amanda has one ''visceral'' reaction when Cecilia kills her.

* If you know '''Addison Corday''''s backstory from [[AllThereInTheManual official sources]], you can understand why she's not the nicest person. She was a prostitute busted for having sex with Eric (which resulted in him getting a demotion), and he incarcerated her out of spite. Her death is also quite horrific, even if it happened on behalf of her being TooDumbToLive.

* Even though she appears to be somewhat apathetic as one the scammers of The Pederson Project, '''[[DisposableSexWorker Valentina]]''' has garnered some sympathy for the horrific circumstances that led to her death, which started with her being abducted shortly after a near-rape encounter with a prostitution client. Then she's placed in a trap that requires her to cut off her leg with a Gigli saw and extract the bone marrow through a surgical vacuum to stop the timer. Her having endured her trap, only to end up failing at the last second just because her bone marrow was too slow to fill up the container in time, seems downright unfair to plenty of viewers.
