Let's not get carried away here, DC
There was definitely resentment on Fredo's part towards Michael, and altho he may have bought Ola's song and dance that helping Roth would be "good for the family", Fredo had to know that he was acting in his own self-interest ("He said there was something in it for me - on my own") as well and quite possibly doing the wrong thing.
All I'm arguing is that he knew he screwed up, he was remorseful, and if properly supervised in the future, posed no threat, and therefore was killed needlessly.
