Abuse occurs from 41:30 to 42:00, if you need to skip. Your cue is a group of boys beating up another boy in broad daylight.

This is at the very end of the episode, so you can just stop the episode when you see the witch at her stove full of bubbling pots. Technically it is not a death: the witch just changes her crow familiar into a young human man. The problem is the scene as she does so. It's a few whole minutes of her at her stove, doing things that look and sound as if she is gleefully mutilating the bird; in the end, the crow isn't specifically dead, but the entire scene is very distressing to watch & hear.

Crow in much too-small cage in S1E1. Although, for context, it’s a witch’s familiar and doesn’t seem to mind.
NM, Monty the crow is painfully mangled for a transfiguration spell in S1E2, seemingly against his will. You hear him scream. He survives the process, apparently he’s just being rearranged into a human.

(spoiler) in ep5 the ghost ex girlfriend of the clients tells Edwin that Brad drugged her with GHB and that she failed her drug test and lost her scholarship for it. She doesn't not say she was assaulted and it's not really alluded to that she was, more that they were trying to get her to partake in drugs with them. Later Crystal refers to it as "The date-r**e drug"

Somewhat. Dispare is featured in episode 7 and for a moment she cuts her hand with her sigil ring purposefully. it’s very short and you can tell when it’s about to happen. look away for about 5 seconds and you should be fine.

S1E3:
Once they solve the case, the father is taken to hell. Only a red light through a window is shown to represent this, though.
S1E5:
Two jocks are grabbed by tendrils and dragged to hell near the end of the episode.
S1E7:
Edwin and Charles spend most of the episode in hell. Edwin being tortured, and Charles trying to find him.
Overall:
One of the main subplots of the show is that Edwin went to and escaped hell and doesn't want to go back.
