The Roman accusation against Jesus was that He was a "king"... an affrontery to Rome's Emperor.

Scarlet robes were worn by royalty and emperors, and it was the Roman soldiers' way of mocking Him.

"...they stripped Him, and put on Him a scarlet robe. And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand: and they bowed the knee before Him, and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! And they spit upon Him, and took the reed, and smote Him on the head." (Matt.27:28-30)

Why do some Catholic churches cover the statue of Jesus with a red robe?

Before his crucifixion, the Roman soldiers mocked Jesus by dressing him a "robe of scarlet". Actually, prior to Vatican II, it was the custom to cover all statues and paintings in the church with violet from Passion Sunday until the Vigil Mass on Easter Sunday as a symbol of penance and sorrow. No flowers or any other form of decoration was allowed during these days also. Some churches still follow the custom today.
