Christ was wrong to ask for this

Christ was in a position to ask for forgiveness for whoever he wanted. He was the one about to suffer the wrong.

Christ was in a position to ask for forgiveness for whoever he wanted. He was the one about to suffer the wrong.

But why would he ask His Father to forgive?

According to your definition of "forgiveness justice" Christ's forgiveness is all that was correct - there was no need for His Father to, additionally, forgive Christ's murderers.
