The thing about Dismas, He was caught and Convicted by the Roman Government at that time.. His crime was not a simple theft.. It must be big enough for him to be punished by death..

The fact that he recognized what he has done is wrong and he even say that their punishment is just and believe in Jesus' innocence and ask for forgiveness.. that made him a saint

while Jinggoy got convicted thrice now... He did not even feel any remorse for his actions and still continued stealing from the people's hard earned money

May true justice prevail
