Acquitted is what the judgment should be regarding Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

The immoral behavior relates to his marrying and having children with his own mother. But he should be acquitted because he lacks intent and motive in that both deeds are committed without knowing that he is killing his father and sovereign and that he is marrying his mother.
