Knives' backstory in this version of Trigun involves being abused as a child and he is quite an evil main villain.

I'm not so sure but villains(Legato and some of Gung-Ho-Guns) often tell the main character that he is the one who killed others and it's his guilt that they are dead(but he didn't do that, he isn't even really responsible for their deaths)

Vash and Wolfwood drink heavily, and so do many background characters. Episode 3 'Peacemaker' revolves around a legendary gunsmith who turned into an alcoholic. By the end of the episode he vows to leave alcohol behind.

Not onscreen, however: in episode 11 'Escape From Pain', the shadows are shown of a man manhandling a girl who is heavily implied to be a sex slave. The man is heavily implied to sexually abuse her afterwards.
