Sure Mim had some chips on his shoulders that could be used as excuses, but let's face it, even if some of Turin's men weren't the best, Turin and Beleg were doing their best to control their forces and oppose Morgoth, the enemy of the world. Mim, by betraying their position to the servants of Morgoth, essentially was saying "I'm on Morgoth's side". You're either with him or against him. No true and noble foe of Morgoth would make terms with his servants, particularly if those terms involved the slaying of his foes.
Yeah, Mim had a rough time, blah blah excuses, but there's no excuse for being in league with Morgoth, end of story. Hurin struck him down for his willful betrayal, and rightly so.
