Why does Harry use Crucio against Amycus Carrow?

Why does Harry use Crucio against Amycus Carrow?

Harry is not, and never has been, a saint. Like Snape, he is flawed and mortal. Harry’s faults are primarily anger and occasional arrogance. On this occasion, he is very angry and acts accordingly. He is also in an extreme situation, and attempting to defend somebody very good against a violent and murderous opponent.

J. K. Rowling when asked why Harry uses the Cruciatus Curse on Amycus Carrow (DH30: The Sacking of Severus Snape)
