A simple skit that only involves a few actors.   There is an accuser (the prosecuting attorney) who has three criminals to stand trial before the judge.  They say a little in their defense, but it is clear that they are all guilty.   At the end, the judge forgives them all and sets them free.   When the accuser objects because the law must be carried out, the judge upholds the law and condemns another to die in their place - himself.     The play ends as the judge offers his own life in place of the guilty.

Cast of five.  Any gender.  More can be added.  About 5-6 mins.
