On Chapter 3: "Crime Scene", while you play as Jayden, you can find a dead cat's body on the train tracks.
It's not graphic and there's no blood, but it can still be upsetting.

A major character visits a house near the end of the game and the man living there offers her a drink which turns out to be drugged. This can be avoided based on your responses to him, in which case he will physically knock her out instead.

Madison is forced to strip for Paco at gunpoint. Dr. Baker spikes her drink, she wakes up strapped to a medical table and he attempts to violate her with a power drill. The first time you control her there's also a home invasion nightmare where she's attacked by men while she's in her underwear, she can be thrown onto the bed during the fight scene

About halfway through the game the killer asks you to cut off a finger in front of the camera in order to get a clue. You don't HAVE to do it, you can walk away, but you won't get the clue to save your son.

In Chapter 31 - The Shark, Ethan must shoot and kill a father of two in order to pass the fourth trial. The player can choose to fail this trial by sparing the man's life.
It is also heavily implied by Scott Shelby's interviews with mothers of the Origami Killer's victims that that many of the victims' fathers are now "missing" because they died during the trials to save their children.

Sort of? There's a clear misunderstanding of what D.I.D. is at the very least. (Spoilers!) Many characters, including Ethan himself, suspect that he is what they refer to as schizophrenic but clearly mean D.I.D., and that the killer is another of his identities. However, he is ultimately proven not to have D.I.D. (or actual schizophrenia, or anything else)

In Chapter 21 - The Butterfly (second trial) flashing lights are visible during the majority of the electric maze. Electricity randomly sparks and arcs in this room. Smaller flashes can be seen when the maze is viewed from above. Larger flashes can be seen as the camera follows Ethan through the maze in ways that bring electrical arcs to the foreground player's perspective.
