Actions speak louder than words, Alex's actions and mindset are what got him killed, you don't need an interview, the facts speak for themselves.

For all we know it has happened, but it's less likely to make the news as an RBSD personality is no where near the same level of the celebrity heirarchy as Alex Gong was.

Now you're making shit up and grasping at straws, there are plenty of high profile RBSD guys, two of them died in the last 6 months.
Of old age.
I'm not looking to get drawn into a shitting contest here but I think I'll share a lesson I was taught by an old Master Chief at my first duty station working base security.
We often had fights on base and in base housing and the winner usually didn't stick around so we had to search for them, to aid in that we had a list of the Usual Suspects which hung on the wall.
If it happened in base housing it was a "cassanova" these guys can get laid so they're out doing so instead of hanging in the gym. Look for the pissed off husbands and boyfriends. Side note these guys are also often Dojo Darlings who fold up the first time they get hit, so don't bother looking for the winners in the TMA clubs.
If it happened in the club and no one saw it, check the Judo club.
If it happened in the barracks or the club and witnesses reported a quick KO from out of nowhere then check the boxing club.
If it happened in the mess hall check the wrestling club, find the injured wrestler they almost always hurt themselves on the inanimate objects and the hard floors.
This list proved especially helpful when hunting the trouble makers on board the ship where long hours working and living around the people you work with causes friction.
My 20 years as a Master At Arms taught me that people who view fighting as a sport (a game) tend to get into them more often than the people who view fighting as self defense. People who train with weapons typically think fighting includes these things and as such tend to avoid them far more often than people who view fighting as a sport.
