They did not believe the trial would be fair. They knew it wouldn't be. Mace Windu even argued that they had to banish Ahsoka from the Order so she could stand trial as a civilian otherwise it would be seen as an act of opposition to the Senate. They were sending Ahsoka to die so that the Republic wouldn't lose faith in them, just like they didn't tell anyone that the clones were bankrolled by Count Dooku because the Republic would lose faith in the Jedi and the war itself.

It's pretty clear where the Jedi Order's allegiance lied in the final years of the Republic.

Count Dooku left the order without issue.
Looking into it further there have been twenty Jedi since the inception of the Order that left and they are collectively known, rather aptly, as the Lost Twenty. It kinda proves my point that only twenty Jedi ever left the Order in, what, five thousand years?

He was - he wasn't a padawan any longer but a jedi knight his training was complete and unfortunately for him and the jedi he often kept secrets hidden from them while revealing them to Palpatine (secrets which might have prevented him from becoming a jedi knight).
So they just washed their hands of him and his emotional needs the moment he passed the trials? Even though Anakin didn't earn the rank of Jedi Knight the way a Jedi traditionally did? Clearly the Jedi Order is pretty lax when it comes to what qualifies a Jedi to become a Knight given they promoted Obi-Wan to Jedi Knight for killing Darth Maul and Windu even tried to twist the whole "we're sorry for kicking you out of the Order and giving you up to the Republic for execution" thing into "if you come back we'll make you a Jedi Knight" with Ahsoka.

This argument does not withstand scrutiny. The Jedi Council did not want Anakin to become a Jedi and they treated him quite coldly as a result. They couldn't exactly stop Anakin from becoming a Jedi after all, because Obi-Wan was going to train him regardless, so they put the kid on a leash instead. The distance they kept Anakin at allowed Palpatine to get his claws into him, turning who would have been the Jedi Order's greatest defense against the Sith into their greatest weakness.
