I'm always amazed at the people who even consider the Jesus shouldn't have been/didn't deserve to be crucified thing. There's two perspectives to look at- the Roman (that is, secular) and the Christian. In order:

1) The Roman: Jesus was a rabble rouser. That didn't get looked upon kindly by the Empire, and rightly so. Execution.

2) The Christian: The death and ressurection of Jesus is THE pivotal point in the Christian belief system, no matter how much televangelists and the door-to-door types tell you it was his preaching and ministry on Earth. For Jesus to die for all mankind, he kind of needed to die.

Which is why I've also never understood the urge by some people to consider Jews guilty of theicide- Jesus HAD to be executed for the whole redemption and ressurection thing to work. It's a necessary part of the whole thing.

Agree with u 100% just commenting on how much time they gave Jesus to appeal compared to today. Country going bankrupt and negelecting our elderly more teachers and better scools but coddle the prisoner
