He was the loving brother of Angelina Acomb, who was his only family. In his youth, he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree from Renfield University. When he joined the Metropolitan Police Department, he did everything in his power to serve justice and over the years acquired a good and respected reputation. He acted loyal towards his colleagues and was even willing to break the law if he felt that it was necessary to protect his department. Mark continued to build his reputation as a respected detective of the homicide department and was on active service for 15 years already when his whole life changed drastically. One night, his sister, Angelina, was brutally murdered by her ex-boyfriend, Seth Baxter, during a domestic dispute. Seth, who had tried to flee, was found and apprehended two days later. For the murder of Angelina, he was sentenced to life in prison. Following his arrest, Mark organized Angelina's funeral. However, he wasn't able to get over the loss and developed a serious drinking problem. Additionally, his severe depression caused him to become mentally unstable to the point where he started to lose his empathy and began to show traits of a sociopath. Five years after his sister's death, Mark eventually got involved in the case of a serial killer who was nicknamed Jigsaw, as he used to cut a jigsaw piece from the skin of his dead victims. Jigsaw used to put them into deadly traps and forced them to mutilate themselves in order to survive. Mark investigated the case as part of a serial killer task force. Shortly afterward, Mark's life took another unexpected turn when Seth Baxter was acquitted on a technicality and had to be released from prison despite his life sentence. He decided to take revenge on the murderer of his sister. In order not to become a suspect on his own, Hoffman planned to make the murder look like another crime of Jigsaw. Therefore, he designed a deadly trap, but unlike Jigsaw, he didn't intend to give Seth any chance to survive. The month after Seth's release from prison, Hoffman finally set up his trap. After witnessing Seth's death, Mark averted his eyes, horrified by what he had done. Moments later, he finally left his hiding spot and cut a jigsaw piece from Seth's skin and took it with him as he left the building. When the police investigated, they believed it was Jigsaw, and Mark got away with it. Mark was later kidnapped by a man. Mark found himself strapped to a chair with a shotgun aiming at his head and saw his abductor, John Kramer, standing before him. John showed him a newspaper article about the Pendulum Murder, labeling it as a distasteful act of imitation and thereby revealing himself to be the actual Jigsaw Killer. They engaged in a discussion, during which John confronted him with Angelina's death, his drinking problem, and his revenge on Seth. Hoffman claimed that Seth hadn't deserved a chance to survive, which angered John as he saw killing as something vicious and distasteful, claiming that he himself gave all of his victims a chance. When he put his finger on the trigger, Hoffman prepared to die. However, when John pulled the trigger, he realized that the shotgun wasn't loaded. Moments later, John ultimately freed him from his restraints and offered him a choice: Hoffman could either become his apprentice and help him set up his future games or John would publish the evidence against him and send it to the police. Hoffman said that he could also kill him as no one would believe John more than him, however, he remained calm and asked him if he really wanted to ruin his own life for the legal system that had released Seth Baxter from prison. After a short argument, Hoffman finally agreed to John's offer. Mark then became Jigsaw's apprentice. He set up multiple games, kidnapped people, planned traps. Now that John is dead, Mark is now the main Jigsaw Killer and the one in control. Currently, Mark is one of two survivors of a trap he put himself in. He meant to kill everyone - Lynn Denlon, Jeff Denlon, Amanda Young, Lieutenant Daniel Rigg, Detective Eric Matthews, and FBI Agent Peter Strahm - and appear like a hero. However, Strahm survived, and he knows Mark is the killer. Mark is now playing mind games with Strahm, trying to frame him as the Jigsaw Killer so Mark can walk away clean.
