In the movie Se7en, SLOTH thoughts - Bored ethnic female in casual clothes sitting at table with netbook and watching sad movie while resting at home during weekend

The SLOTH victim, exactly why was he to be tortured to death "this" way?

Are we supposed to know what happened to his left hand, and what exactly are those tubes in his right arm?

Are we to surmise he was made a heroin addict then experience withdrawal? Am I thinking about this too much?

The tubes are an IV line carrying nutrients, fluids, and whatever drugs John Doe was using to keep the victim alive and placid for the year he was trapped in the apartment.
