Sweets mentions that before he was adopted, he suffered emotional (and possibly physical) abuse with the foster families he was placed with. Bones also suffered emotional abuse in her foster placements as a child and was once even locked in the boot of a car for ‘misbehaving’, which allows her to empathise with others who went through the same thing.
In Season 9 Episode 3 “El Carnicero en el Conche” the victim’s murderer, a teenage boy named Javier Alvarado is slapped quite hard by his mother Maria, the victim’s girlfriend after she learns the truth. Maria is arrested for child abuse and gang related activities.

Not directly but Hodgins mentions that he'd rather drive off a bridge than talk to Sweets.

Many of the main characters are socially uncomfortable enough to react with panic to occasional extreme social/professional situations, and footage of crime victims and perpetrators often features panic and anxiety reactions.

S08e09 is shown almost entirely from the POV of the victim's skull that the team takes to carrying around because some of them believe that the boy's soul is still there. The picture is sometime shakey due to this

S8 Episode 5: the entire cast speaks to a skull of a victim as if he were still alive. The audience sees from the perspective of the skull so it seems the characters are talking to the viewer. Could potentially be triggering

Several characters give birth during the series, three of those happen more-or-less onscreen. SPOILERS:: the most explicit one is when Bones gives birth in s07e07. Her upperbody is shown throughout as well as her legs and the freshly born baby. Angela gives birth in s06e23 in a hospital, she is shown several time during labor and her upper body is shown during delivery but it is clean. The freshly born baby is shown. Daisy gives birth in s10e08. She is shown several times during labor and her cries can be heard during delivery

In s04e07 the victim is a transgender woman who is at first identified as male based on her skeleton. Her wife (who she was married to before she came out or transitioned) refuses to acknowledge her identity. Booth purposefully misgenders her several times while interrogating suspects to manipulate them (either to placate them, or to get a rise out of them). The majority of the main cast as well as the people in the victim's life re supportive.
In s04e23 one of the people assisting on the case "identifies with a subset of an urban Japanese aesthetic known as kei [...] It glorifies androgyny", but the squints spend the episode trying to guess their "real gender". At the end of the episode Angela hugs them and later tells the squints that they are a guy.
In s09e23 the victim is a drag queen and there are several drag queens interviewed during the investigation. There are a few instances that might qualify as misgendering and also where Booth deliberately does t to get a rise out of someone

The episode features transphobic jokes from several of the main characters, and doesn't take much care about the language they use, but overall the episode's tone is very positive - the transphobes in the episode are depicted as criminals and villains. Booth makes one transphobic comment, to which someone responds, "Don't say she 'used to be' a man, that makes you sound ignorant." Thereafter, when the rest of the team is having trouble with the victim's pronouns, Booth asserts firmly, "From now on, 'he' is always 'she'. She was a she when she died, so she deserves the respect due to him or her... okay, person!" While this is not the most "optimal" way to be an ally, Booth unmistakably is one, and the overall tone of the episode attempts to be respectful.

Booth says f****t. Can't find the episode number but it's at the end of the episode where the victim was a gay guy. The murderer called the victim this.

I could be wrong but I’m fairly sure Yanks in the UK ends up with the victim and her boyfriend actually having been related (with the same father), though neither finds out.
