No one...that is, when He was an adult. However, when He was a child, King Herod sent soldiers to the town where He was reported to be living and had them kill all the male children two years old and under in an effort to kill Jesus. Jesus and His family escaped, and the tragic "Slaughter of the Innocents" failed in its attempt to snuff out Jesus' life.
