Biography[]
Abduction[]
Donald Greco was a young man who was addicted to drugs. Therefore, he became a patient at a free recovery clinic for drug addicts run by Dr. Jill Tuck. Due to his drug addiction, he was eventually targeted by John Kramer, better known as the Jigsaw Killer. The latter was Jill's ex-husband and the father of her miscarried son, Gideon. After abducting him, he took Donald to an abandoned warehouse and injected him with an opiate overdose, rendering him unable to move or feel anything. Furthermore, John made him swallow a key. He also abducted another of Jill's patients, Amanda Young. John strapped Amanda to a chair and put a mechanical contraption on her head. This device was hooked into Amanda's upper and lower jaws. After finishing all of his preparations, the killer left the building. (Saw II: Flesh & Blood)
Death[]
Shortly afterward, Amanda woke up. Although initially confused, she quickly panicked upon realizing she was trapped. Amanda desperately tried to free herself from the chair but stopped when a TV turned on next to her. A mechanical ventriloquist puppet named Billy appeared on-screen and introduced her to a perfidious game. The doll described the device on her head as a "reverse bear trap." The trap would rip Amanda's mouth open if she did not free herself within 60 seconds. To do so, she had to cut the key to the device from the stomach of her supposedly dead cellmate.
When the TV turned off, Amanda panicked again. After initially struggling, she ultimately freed her arms from her restraints and spotted Donald's seemingly lifeless body. After a brief hesitation, Amanda realized her cellmate was not dead but only paralyzed. Nonetheless, she took a knife lying next to him and repeatedly stabbed the helpless man.

Post-Mortem[]
After killing him, Amanda searched through his stomach for the key. When she eventually found it, she unlocked the trap and freed herself only moments before its activation. In a panic, Amanda fled and ultimately found a way out of the building. Following her survival, John disposed of Donald's mutilated corpse.
Sometime later, the Metropolitan Police Department found the building. Although Donald's body was missing, they positively identified him by investigating the blood evidence. (Saw: The Video Game, Saw II: Flesh & Blood)
