A:The gospels depict Jesus as being sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, a Roman governor, at the insistence of the Jews. Since the Romans had the power of life and death over their subjects, it was important to the early Christians to emphasise the role of the Jews in the crucifixion of Jesus and to minimise the role of Pontius Pilate. Any tradition that cast doubt on the loyalty of Christians could have been fatal to the emerging religion.

Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written, shows Pilate offering to release Jesus for the Passover, but the Jews insist that Barabbas be released instead. Matthew makes it plain that Pilate attempted to prevail in saving Jesus and, when that failed, symbolically washed his hands. Luke's Gospel. written next, even has Pilate attempt to avoid trying Jesus by sending him to Herod Antipas for trial, then twice propose that he chastise Jesus and release him. In each of these accounts, the Roman magistrate is cleared of any wrong in the death of Jesus, causing the blame to fall on the Jews.

The early Christians can be shown to have believed the Jews to be forever criminally responsible for the death of Jesus, for example with their persecution by Emperor Constantine and the Christian emperors who followed.

A:

The Romans (Gentiles) crucified Jesus Christ. The Jews crucified Jesus Christ. All of us crucified Jesus Christ for it was for our transgressions collectively, that He died to save sinners. In the redemptive plan of God, each one of us born of Adam's corrupt seed are responsible for sending Him to die. There is no "false accusation."

We are all guilty.

Shouldn't the name Jesus Christ be Jesus the Christ?

That is a wonderful question, but the Bible does not use much punctuation, so in reality, speaking of the grammar, it is suppose to be written Jesus, Christ. not Jesus Christ. As many references in the KJV of the Bible, is Christ Jesus, written correctly Christ, Jesus, or Jesus, Christ. It is referring to Christ.
