15. The Pharisees instigated it.
And when Pontius Pilot could find that he had done nothing wrong, He gave the people a choice. Release Jesus or release a thief, the people (those who where conspiring against Jesus, including the Pharisees chose the thief. It was all political at the time and the only reason that religion is involved is because the Jewish leaders were afraid of Jesus' potential to influence the people in regards to the $$ flowing into the temple.
