Vagrants, the homeless, drifters, runaways, society's castoffs; there's many, many names for them, none of them nice. Most people look away and pretend not to hear them when they ask for change, if not outright disdain and mistreat them for the crime of having been left behind by society-- or having left society behind. With so many moving around, who would even care enough to notice the bum who is usually in the street corner of Trope and Tan every morning has gone missing? Sadly Truth in Television. Examples of Disposable Vagrant include:

With so many moving around, who would even care enough to notice the bum who is usually in the street corner of Trope and Tan every morning has gone missing? And that is precisely what the Serial Killer, Mad Scientist, hungry monster and The Mafia are counting on. These exceedingly vulnerable Innocent Bystanders are frequently killed and abducted for fun, spare parts, to sate hunger or for a spare dead body. They can be sure the police won't push the investigation too hard; at least not until a rich, beautiful (and preferably female) character is kidnapped or killed. If anyone does notice, it'll be The Hero, an aid worker or beat cop who notices familiar faces disappearing. Usually though, quite a few will die before the culprit is ever caught. Compare Disposable Sex Worker, for a profession at risk of violent crimes, and Kill the Poor, for more high profile slaughter of the impoverished on a much wider scale. Contrast Missing White Woman Syndrome. Sadly Truth in Television. Examples of Disposable Vagrant include:
