Biography

Early Life

The Young Cop was a man who worked for the Metropolitan Police Department. At one point in his career, he played a role in the case of the serial killer John Kramer, better known as the Jigsaw Killer.

Finding Allison Kerry

Several months later, the police finally found out about the identity of Jigsaw, as he had revealed it to them himself, but were unable to arrest him. Another six months later, Detective Allison Kerry was abducted from her apartment by Jigsaw's apprentice, Amanda Young, who put her in one of her traps, killing her in the process. Four days later, her corpse was found in a basement area by Mark Hoffman and a SWAT team led by Lieutenant Daniel Rigg. Shortly afterwards, after they called for the forensics, he and Fisk arrived at the crime scene to begin investigation. While taking a look at the corpse, whose rib cage had been ripped apart, one of the police photographers discovered a bullet shell clamped between the device and the body. As Fisk informed Hoffman about this, the latter ordered the shell to be examined for fingerprints. (Saw III, IV)

Daniel Rigg's Trial

Fisk is informed about the fingerprints

One day, a fingerprint from Officer Rigg was found on the bullet shell from Kerry's crime scene by a member of the forensic team. When Detective Fisk informed the special agents Peter Strahm and Lindsey Perez about this, he then told Fisk about a reported shooting at 23 Park Place, the location of Rigg's apartment. Shortly afterwards, the agents entered the apartment with the assistance of a SWAT team. Upon doing so, they found out that another game had begun.

Mark Hoffman's Promotion

Hoffman gets promoted

After the Gideon Plant had been secured, the corpses of John, Amanda, Lynn, Jeff, Rigg, Art Blank, and Eric were taken to the morgue, where Dr. Adam Heffner performed the autopsy on every single one of them. Despite this unnerving message, the Chief of Police gave a speech to the police and the press during a memorial ceremony for Hoffman as well as his deceased colleagues and thereby proudly announced that the Jigsaw killings had come to an end. Additionally, he Hoffman to the rank of a Detective Lieutenant and thereby handed him an honor plaque for his efforts in the case. Hoffman gave thanks to him for this honor and also gave a speech to the press as well, claiming that he and his colleagues had done their best to serve true justice. (Saw V)

Lindsey Perez' Death

After the memorial, he came to Hoffman and informed him that the hospital had called for him as Lindsey Perez had died, after she had been heavily injured during her attempts to stop Rigg's game. When he learned about her death, he went to the Saint Eustace Hospital and entered her room where he found a depressed Strahm, who had been taken to the same hospital and sat at her bed. Hoffman condoled with him on the death of Perez. Strahm however reacted angrily and told him that her last words had been "Detective Hoffman", which further fueled his suspicion towards him. Therefore, he confronted him with the events at the Gideon Plant, stating that he didn't believe Hoffman's story according to which he had escaped when his arm straps broke. Irritated by Strahm's accusations, Hoffman angrily left the hospital. (Saw V)
