What a flawed argument! Jesus' ministry lasted approx 1-3 years, then he was crucified. The Romans crucified Jews by the thousands back then. Where are all the other crucifixion records?

Christ wasn't high on Rome's radar, he was high on the radar of the Jewish leaders, but not of Rome. He had a small number of hand-trained followers, he didn't have thousands - or even hundreds of follows - at that time.

Hence there was nothing to "overlook".
