What does Oedipus suggest should happen to him in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That he should be accompanied in exile with his daughters and that he should be exiled to the mountains outside Thebes are what Oedipus suggests should happen to him in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, disgraced Theban King Oedipus must be punished with execution or exile for killing King Laius, his father and his sovereign. The gods determine the punishment options and then choice of which to apply. Oedipus decides that he wants to put in a bid on how he views punishment options: Let him be exiled with his daughters and let that exile be to Cithaeron, the mountains of his intended death as an infant outside Thebes.

Should Oedipus be acquitted or punished in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Acquitted is what the judgment should be regarding Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, disgraced Theban King Oedipus is accused of criminal acts and immoral behavior. The criminal acts refer to his killing of five individuals in self-defense. 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.
