Luke 23.2 has Pilate being told that Jesus tried to prevent the payment of taxes to Caesar.
To: Verginius Rufus
And yet Luke 23:4 is very clear about this:
And Pilate said to the chief priests and to the multitudes: I find no cause in this man.

To: Verginius Rufus
While it’s true the crowd claimed Christ opposed payment of taxes to Caesar, Pilate subsequently says he finds no guilt in Christ. So that’s hardly evidence that Christ was killed over taxes.
