I always got the impression, from that scene, that although Michael knew that Carlo had set up Sonny, he wasn't 100% sure. It was almost as though Michael wanted to HEAR Carlo say that he did it to be 100% sure that he was doing the right thing by killing Carlo. That his suspicions were now 100% confirmed.


Well, while I agree with you, that Micheal wanted to HEAR Carlo say that he did it, I don't believe it was "to be 100% sure that he was doing the right thing by killing Carlo". I believe his assessment was enough for that. I believe that Michael just wanted to feed his ego.
