But if you interfere with the Inquisition in such a manner that's just gonna make what the other guy said come to fruition. They can't afford to take chances, they can't afford to hesitate and if you start killing em en masse then who's gonna be there to stop these chaos incursions? Who's gonna show up to prevent these Daemonic invasions or a Genestealer cult from becoming too powerful and ending tenfold the amount of lives the Inquisition could have saved at the cost of a few? Yes, the Inquisition isn't infallible and sometimes make mistakes or certain Inquisitors think they can do as they wish, but for every nutjob you have an Inquisitor that has likely saved many more lives than he's taken, even if some of those lost were innocent.

Lyrics of this awesome song We Have Known Dark Times We Have Known Strife To Live In These Times Is To Have Expendable Life Where Progress And Humanity Are Replaced With Brutality Where The Will Of The Few Dictate The Lives Of The Many But A Secret Promise Is Made To Those Who Are Dauntless For At The End Of Days, They Shall Be Found Faultless Dam This Wretched World That I Call My Home Under Stygian Skies, We’re Caged In A Dome Possessions Mass Produced, From Our Heads To Our Feet The Tattered Rags We Wear To The Corpses That We Eat Hell Is We’re Granted Forced To Serve Till We’re Ended Tired, And Through, We Are Tempted We’ll Walk The Path Until We Are Rewarded The Church Takes Their Taxes Holy Hounds Hunt Relentless Our Work: Brutal And Thankless But At The We Shall Be Found Faultless I Walk To My Station, Ready To Toil To Forge Weapons Of War As My Flesh Boils I Wonder How I Make It Through The Day Then, Across The Assembly Line, I See That Pure Face Pure And Perfect My Beloved Is All I ever Need Beneath All That Dust And Grime Is True Beauty Bombs, Gas, Screams, And Bright Lights All At Once Causes Great Fright Terror Sows, As We All Know A Cacophony That Heralds The Death Blow Rounded Up By The Enforcers Lawmen and Heretic Hunters An Agent Of The Administration Who, With A Dark Voice, Makes This Accusation There They Are, The Heretic I Want That Laborer Bound In Chains What? Me? This Cannot Be! I Have Toiled, I Have Worshipped, I Have Done Not A Thing! Lies! Schemes! Evil Trickery! You Have Tainted Your Kin With Your Vile Perfidy I Am Innocent, Show Some Humanity! I Have Shown Nothing But Undying Loyalty! You Dare Challenge Me? To You, I Guarantee: You Have Doomed Your Kin With The Death Penalty As I’m Dragged Away, I hear A Familiar Sound The Cracks Of Lasers Fill The Room As Dozens Are Mowed Down I Look Back To Find A Charnel Pit Where My Friends Lay Slain My Dead Lover’s Eyes Stare Back At Me My Heart Fills With Rage And Pain Hell Is We’re Granted Forced To Serve Till We’re Ended Tired, And Through, We Are Tempted We’ll Bid Our Time Until We Are Rewarded The Church Takes Their Taxes Holy Hounds Hunt Relentless Our Work: Brutal And Thankless But At The We Shall Be Found Faultless Why Must I Great Suffer For The Sins Of Another No Longer A Simple Worker I’ll Rot Away, Forgotten In The Slammer No, This Won’t Be My Fate Theses Chains Will Crack And Break Don’t Care How Long It Takes This Iron Cage Is where I Will Be Remade My Lover’s Life Taken My World Burnt To Ashes For This Sin: There’ll Be Vengeance At The End Of Days, I’ll Be Found Faultless My Lover’s Life Taken My World Burnt To Ashes For This Sin: There’ll Be Vengeance At The End Of Days, I’ll Be Found Faultless

You'd be surprised. Assuming this is Pre-Cadia / Great Rift, the Inquisition would kill you without even a seconds hesitation for simply looking at a member of chaos. A simple mantle towards a Chaos entity that looks initially like an Imperium one was enough for Inqusisitors to either send you to prison for life or to simply execute you. If for a second they thought your supposed taint was on anyone else, they too where just as guilty. Again, it was simple as looking at and running from chaos that led to things like the Months of Shame. They where so paranoid about the influence of chaos spreading like a hidden disease, they figured killing a 10000 will save the 5 million. This changed somewhat after Cadia, with Chaos being litterally fucking everywhere, but the Inquistion is still a bunch of pricks.

The funny thing is, that guy could have been complete heretic. Cultist to the bone, just pretending even in his mind that he is faithfull. Hoping to get away with his vile deeds. That is one of the nasty things about cultists. They are often really faithfull. They will keep pretending to be innocent just to make you doubt. Just to weaken your will. To make you be lenient next time you interogate someone.

One mistake is all it takes for entire sectors to burn to ground, for trillions of human lives to be lost and for heretic cults torturing billions to the brink of insanity and then way beyond. That little kid that showed miniscule signs that he may or may not posses some psyker abilities? If you would spare him and just pass it as "I must have imagined it" or "It is nothing serious", you can then 30 years down the line end up watching entire planet to be torn apart and turned into demonic hellscape because of it. And you have absolutely no sure way to verify beforehand if that kid will do that or not. Would you take that kid to the black ships where it will suffer greatly and probably be sacrificed? Or will you take the chance? One kid vs lives of everyone on the planet dying in the most horrible way you can imagine where parents will bite their children to pieces just to end their suffering little bit faster. People before took those chances. And often it did not end up bad. But those few times when it did, the consequences infinitely outweighted the benefits of sparing some lives and being nice.

There is a story were a preacher was sent to a population of beastmen and mutants, where things got heated due to the local authorities ignoring the numerous murders of mutants. Eventually devolved into a full on rebellion when an anti riot force gunned a bunch of protestors when they claimed they have worked hard all their lives for the Emperor. It turned out the rulers of the planet where the ones behind the murders, which were actually sacrifices in heretic rituals. The preacher had a breakdown because he couldn't comprehend someone who had everything in their lives were the ones who turned to chaos.

You know what the inquisitor's biggest mistake here was? It wasn't (presumably) falsely accusing the menial of heresy then gunning down all his friends. It was not giving him the dignity of dying with them, presumably so that he could interrogate him or use him for some other purpose. If he had just killed the poor sod quickly and painlessly, there would have been no chance for him to focus his rage and consort with darker powers. But nope, the Inquisitor had to be a sadistic dick.
