It's been a while since I've seen II, and this may be obvious, but I think it was more subtle than just wacking Frankie. I think the larger, more ominous implication was that the Witness Protection Program won't mean shit to people who know enough about you that they can get to your family in Sicily.
To this day, I can't say a Hail Mary without the hair standing on the back of my neck.
