Without the book here, when Neville try to hurt Draco and Harry and 
Ron stop him. They almost choked him and Snape said to release him 
and took points for fighting.

And in Umbridge's office, GoyleorCrabbe strangle him and the same, he 
said to release him. In a Snapish way "too much paperwork" or 
something. In fact I liked this phrase so I'll searched it :

"And Crabbe, loosen your hold a little. If Longbottom suffocates it 
will mean a lot of tedious paperwork and I'm afraid I shall have to 
mention it in your reference if ever you apply for a job."

I almost could see a insult for Crabbe in the 'ever apply for a job', 
like to remind that he really loathes stupidy.
