To emerge from the woodwork only to disagree, I'm gonna have to 
correct your assessment of Moody.  Remember in Book IV that when 
Crouch Sr. authorized the use of Unforgivables in WWI (Wizarding War 
I) to bring down Death Eaters, Moody was described as striving to 
bring them in alive no matter what, even losing his eye to bring one 
in.  Considering a little Crucio! Action would have made that a bit 
easier, I believe that Moody refrained from using unforgivables in 
WWI as a matter of principle.  I doubt his principles have changed 
much, so I will say that No, Moody will NOT use unforgivables, legal 
or no.
