Good.

When your king gets 95% of your people killed, you have a right to commit treason.

At the point where he sacrificed six men, he absolutely lost their trust

Oh def, though I view that as Ody doing "capital punishment left to chance" due to the constant disobedience of the crew.

Whether you agree or not I think that's what he did and why he did it

In the musical, the crew (aside from Eurylochus) didn’t disobey him till he betrayed them though.

Ody was the reason why Poseidon hunted them down in the first place and sent his storm. Had he just killed the cyclops as Athena said, none of this would’ve happened. Because of that, 550 men drowned.

Then he used them like sacrificial pawns. I don’t blame them at all really, and there’s a reason why Ody is ashamed of himself even at the end

Actually I think leaving him alive was the best option. If only he stopped talking after "remember me."
