A little heavy handed

So I did not see any need to be subtle about it. I confronted Samuels in his quarters and told him I had heard his conversation with Ripley and I wanted the hanger surveillance video footage.
I told him that if he cooperated we could go easy on him. We wanted to know why he did it. Did he have any help? Was he told to do it by the clan? Was this part of a bigger plot to undermine Sirius Corp's hold on Sothis Mining? He didn't want to cooperate. It got a bit heated and we got into a fight. It didn't last long, he was no fighter.
So I dragged him to his computer terminal, sat him at his desk and kept asking him to give me the video. Every time he didn't give me an answer I punched him. He held out despite the beating I was giving him. I found a big bottle of Centauri Mega Gin which is almost pure alcohol. So I shoved a magazine down his throat and poured alcohol down his throat.
The interrogation lasted about an hour. It was a bit of a blur to be honest. I am ashamed to admit I had lost control and I had hurt him a bit too much. The combination of the beating and the alcohol had proved too much and his body had given out. He did not confess to anything but in the end he had given me what I wanted.
I contacted Ashley and told her I had recovered the video but Samuels was dead. She ordered me back to the ship.
