Was Jesus crucified after a trial that Pilate never wanted?

Pilate found no fault in Jesus so he told the Jewish leaders to try Jesus themselves according to their own laws. Pilate learned that Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction so Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see him. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty. Pilate proposed to have Jesus scourged and then released. During passover the Romans had a custom of releasing one Jewish prisoner of the crowd's choosing. Pilate thought they might choose Jesus, but the crowd made clear they wanted him to release a prisoner named Barabbas. The crowd became a mob and with increased intensity called for Pilate to crucify Jesus. Pilate knew his first mandate from Caesar was to keep these people under control. Pilate therefore took a bowl of water and washed his hands, declaring his innocence of the blood of Jesus. I do not suppose Pilate never wanted the trial, only that he knew Jesus was innocent and did not want to see Him crucified.

Who was the judge that the Romans brought Jesus to?

Jesus was brought from Caiaphas' house to appear before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea. The Jewish leaders charged Jesus with subversion of both Israel and Rome. Two of their charges were designed especially to get Pilate's attention. The first was that Jesus opposed paying taxes to Caesar and that Jesus claimed to be king. Finding no fault in Him, Pilate summoned Jesus into Herod's palace and questioned Him further. In the course of the conversation, Pilate learned Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction. So Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see Him. Herod had Jesus dressed in a robe and sent back to Pilate. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty.
