Supposedly it was because either he, or his followers claimed that he was the " King of the Jews " a crime that went against the rule of the Romans
Yes. Jesus died about six hours after being crucified. Crucifixion often took days to kill its victim, so Jesus died very quickly. A common method of making those crucified die more quickly was to break their legs, so that they couldn't push themselves up to breathe. The soldiers did this to the two men crucified on either side of Jesus (at about 3:00 pm) so that they would be dead before Passover began (at sunset), but when they came to Jesus, they found him dead already, so they pierced him with a spear (just for good measure), but didn't break his legs.
AnswerIt was Roman practice to break the legs of those who had been crucified, if they wished to bring on an earlier death. Since the gospels say that the crucifixions took place just before the start of the Passover, the Jews would have wanted the bodies to be taken down before sunset. The Romans acquesced to this religious request, and broke the legs of the two men crucified with Jesus. However, John's Gospel treated the crucifixion of Jesus in some ways as an allegory for the Paschal lamb sacrificed by the Jews at Passover. The lamb had to be perfect, with no broken bones, so John says that the Romans, instead, speared Jesus in the side.

No, they have to have a warrant.
One example pertained to the Sabbath. Jesus raised eyebrows when He and his followers picked (wheat) on the Sabbath, which is Saturday.
Nobody, he was crucified in public. The Roman soldiers went to break his legs and noticed He had already died, although I'm not sure that you'd call that a 'visit'. The centurions also witnessed the signs as Jesus died.

Yes, you are wanted for a FELONY!
Crucifixion sometimes takes days for the victim to die. As John's Gospel describes the process, the Roman soldiers would sometimes break the legs of the crucified prisoner in order to accelerate death, something the gospel says they did to the other two, who were still alive when it became necessary to take the bodies down before the start of the Sabbath. Yet Jesus had died within twelve hours of being placed on the cross. There is no suggestion that Jesus was sickly or weak, but this ought to be the only reason for his surprisingly rapid death. Otherwise, a sceptic could imagine that in the gospels Jesus died so quickly because the story required him to be dead by a certain time.
Only John's Gospel mentions the legs of the other two condemned men being broken, making it clear that Jesus was only speared, with no bones broken. The Gospel explains that Jesus had already died, so it was not necesary to break his legs. The author of Johnwas making a comparison between Jesus and the Paschal lamb of Judaism, even changing the date of the crucifixion to occur on the day of the Passover, instead of the day after. Jews believe that the sacrificial lamb must be perfect and with no bones broken.
