Your thoughts on Barabbas are so interesting. I have a tradition of listening to Jesus Christ Superstar (the original studio recording) on Good Friday, and maybe because of the way that work positions Judas as a tragic hero I always find myself empathizing with him: clinging to a wrong-minded perspective with ferocious self-righteousness and doing irreparable harm in the process.
