The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

It seems in the same spirit as Disposable Vagrant. There are a few examples on that page involving orphans.

Disposable Vagrant is about using people "who won't be missed" for something harmful, so I think it'll work. Also see Kidnapped for Experimentation and, of course For Science!

There's a TLP draft that looks like a sister trope, Prisoner Guinea Pig.
