The passage from Luke, which is the only one to mention the saving of one of the men crucified with Jesus, makes no mention of which one it was. Clearly only one of them asked Jesus to 'remember me' and thus was saved but the other did not.

Thus, since we have no record of which thief on which side said what, then we can only say that He saved one of them and the other was not saved, without reference to the left or the right. In Jewish custom the right hand side was the 'good' side and the left the 'bad' and so an assumption could be made from this, but it would only be an assumption, since there is nothing said about this in the historical account of Jesus' death.

Luke 23:39-4339And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

40But the other ing rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

41And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

42And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

43And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
