Yes indeed. He told stories to a Congressional delegation, and agreed to testify if they gave him immunity. He then went before Congress and told them he had lied to the delegation. They tried him for that, among other things, even though they had granted the immunity in the first place.
It was a witch-hunt to get Reagan, and North foxed them good. They screwed up, and have been whining about "getting off on a technicality" ever since.
