The culprit

Once upon a time, there was a priest who went to the king and said:

-"Lord, I have had a vision. God has told me that you must give forgiveness to one of those condemned to death and he will bless your house and multiply your wealth.

The king said:

-I will do as God has said, but who shall we release?

-He did not speak to me about this.

The king said:

-"You are a holy man, go to the dungeons and speak to the condemned and choose who is to be released.

The priest went into the dungeon and the guard said to the prisoners:

-"The priest wants to talk to you, line up and behave yourselves.

The prisoners began to tell him:

-"I'm innocent, it was a mistake.

They all said the same thing until he reached the end of the line and the priest asked him about his silence:

-"Are you innocent too?

He said:

-No, father, I am guilty. I stole my brother and I don't deserve to say anything in my favor, but the time I've been here I've reflected a lot.

The father immediately said to the jailer:

-This man is guilty and is a thief, take him out at once for he can corrupt all the innocent people here

The man was taken out and freed, transformed his life and became a saint.
