My cumulative GPA is 0.5 points lower than my average GPA according to the CAS report. Does anybody know whether law schools take this into account, or if it is something that should be brought up in my addendum? #help

If that "shittiest thing" has played a role in your decision to pursue law school and you can tie the two together, then not the worst advice. If, however, that tragedy, adversity, or whatever it may be is in no way connected to law school, it can make for a really awkward personal statement.
As somebody said above, don't do that if it doesn't feel genuine. This is the part where you get to express who you are and separate yourself from others. There is almost certainly something about you that is unique and makes you more apt for law school; highlight that.
