The Romans didn't have a problem with Jesus, the Jewish leaders did. Feeling threatened by Jesus's power over the Jewish people and His obvious gift of healing, they used their considerable influence to have the Romans kill Him. Pontis Pilate wanted nothing to do with the crucifixtion, which is why he symbolically 'washed his hands' of the entire affair.
