Saw II (2005)
Answer: From an article on the Saw-wiki: After being found and rescued by his father's fellow officers, Daniel was taken to the Saint Andrews Hospital to recover. During his stay, Daniel was nearly interviewed against his will by Scott Tibbs for his documentary in his obsession to find out more about Jigsaw's motives following his best friend Adam Stanheight's disappearance. To do so, Scott futilely tried about being Daniel's cousin and, after refusing to sign the papers to prove it, tried to sneak into Daniel's room, but a nurse and a security guard came across him and demanded him to leave so he would not disturb Daniel and other patients, which Scott reluctantly did. (The Scott Tibbs Documentary).
Answer: It's never explained in any of the movies, so any answer would be pure speculation. Likely, he was sent back to his mother since his father vanished. And I'm assuming he'd have some sort of trauma/PTSD and would likely need therapy.

Question: Is the SWAT team lead to a different building than Matthews by jigsaw at the end of the film? It looks very similar to the actual crime scene, which is what confuses me so much. If it was the same building they would be able to find Matthews, right?
Answer: It's a different building. It does look extremely similar, but it's not the same building. Given that they are so similar, it's entirely possible that they share a common blueprint design and are part of a development project, which would make sense, as later in the series, John is shown to have had a part in reel estate development.
Detective Mathews is in the real building, the signal the SWAT team finds leads them to a 2nd building which sends the camera feed.
No it was the same building, that's when they found out the tapes were pre recorded because it didn't show them on the cameras.
Answer: When they enter the house, the rugs on the floor are different.
Answer: Yes, he took Matthews to the real building and sent the SWAT team to a duplicate building. But, couldn't they start tracing that building through the feeds in the building he sent the SWAT team through? Oh, and it's kinda BS anyway. There isn't any detective worth his salt, that's been around for as long as he was, that wouldn't have dragged Jigsaw in by his ear and stuck his gun right against his head the whole walk down to that toilet. After all the crap he's done, now all of a sudden the detective is going to trust Jigsaw and trust the key that he handed him? I would've said you hold on to that key. You're going to be the one using it.

Question: How did the police not locate the nerve gas house? Surely the police van Eric drives to the house is tracked by GPS. Even if Jigsaw and/or Amanda moved or destroyed the van, the police should still be able to find the vehicle and subsequently the nerve gas house via the GPS signal.
Answer: To add to the other answer, not every police vehicle is necessarily traceable even to this day. While many departments do have tracking beacons on their cars (such as GPS), there are some that don't. And given this film was released nearly 15 years ago before it became more commonplace, it's reasonable to assume that this is the case here. Also, even if the car was equipped with a lojack system (which would have been more likely at the time), those are pretty easy to block, since any radio-jammer (a device Jigsaw would almost certainly have around) will essentially make them "invisible" to trackers.
Answer: They probably should be able to track the van, but this is just a case of a film requiring "suspension of disbelief, " where we have to accept something that isn't necessarily realistic for the sake of enjoying the movie... Happens all the time in numerous films. We must assume that either the van didn't have a GPS tracker or that it somehow was disabled.

Answer: Since he was still only a teenager, it's likely he would have left the experience traumatized and needing help. At the end of the day, I don't think Daniel woke up thinking he was gonna take someone's life. In The Scott Tibbs Documentary, after Adam's disappearance (the bathroom game in Saw), Scott Tibbs nearly manages to interview Daniel against his will, but is stopped by security.
