He is guilty of two crimes, I think.
First, he is guilty of the crime of patricide. That is, he is guilty of the crime of having killed his father.
Second, he is guilty of the crime of incest. He is guilty of this crime because he has married his mother.
In legal terms, he's probably not really guilty of either of these crimes since he had no idea that he had done either of them. However, in the play, he is guilty simply because he has done the deeds, even if he did not realize what he was doing.
