Probably, after have declared in the Comission he lived protected for the FBI, the same as was going to do Frankie before commit suicide.
Not neccesarily. Read the testimony of Willie Cicci (below), or watch that part of the movie again.
Cicci really did not implicate Michael.
CHAIRMAN
Mr. CICCI, from the year 1942 to the present time -- you were an employ of the GENCO Olive Oil Company?
CICCI
That's right.
CHAIRMAN
But in actuality you were a member of the Corleone crime organization.
CICCI.
No -- uh -- no -- we called it the Corleone family SENATOR -- we called it the family.
CHAIRMAN
What was your position.?
CICCI
Well at first like everyone else I, I was a soldier.
CHAIRMAN
What is that?
CICCI
A button you know SENATOR, come on.
CHAIRMAN
No I don't know. Tell me.
CICCI
Well -- when the boss says push a button on I guy -- I push a button. See SENATOR.
ANNOUNCER

CICCI
Yea -- that's right Counselor.
QUESTADT
And the head -- of your family -- is MICHAEL Corleone.
CICCI
Yea, Counselor -- MICHAEL Corleone -- right.
CHAIRMAN
Did you ever get such an order directly from MICHAEL Corleone.
[His lawyer shakes his head.]
CICCI
No -- I never talked to him.
GEARY
Uh -- Mr. CICCI could you, uh -- amplify your answer a bit?
CICCI
Do what?
GEARY
Could you expand on your answer -- I'm particularly interested in knowing -- uh -- was there always a buffer involved -- .
[CICCI talks to his lawyer.]
-- someone between you and your possible superiors, who gave the actual order?
CICCI
Right, yea a buffer -- the family had a lot of buffers.
CHAIRMAN
Mr. CICCI you may find this very amusing but I promise you the members of this committee do not.
