At the time Iudea was a separate client state not part of Rome proper, so Roman law didn't apply. Secondly if it did apply Yeshua didn't commit any crime under Roman law, beither was he a political threat (in fact, given his utterances Yeshua was the kind of religious figure Rome would have liked). And finally he wasn't convicted by Rome but by the Sanhedrin, who didn't apply crucifiction as a punishment. And they were very careful to not step on the toes of local laws and courts.
How many Messiah claimants did Rome allow to live?
Thousands of them.
Palestine at that time was shoulder deep in prophets, messiahs and preachers, why would Rome give any sort of fuck about them?
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
