Problems to close communication with the Database

I have some applications consuming data from the database, but from time to time the applications are not able to close the connection, when I give a conexao.close(); Java says that it can not close because ResultSet this one up on the try block has already been closed.

See below my code

    public ResultSet getHist(int ID) {
    ResultSet rs = null;
    PreparedStatement state = null;
    Connection conexao = null;
    try{
        conexao = FactoryConnection_MySQL.getConnection("base");
        state = conexao.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM table where id = ?");
        state.setInt(1, ID);
        rs = state.executeQuery();            
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.getMessage();
    } finally {
        try {
            if(!rs.isClosed()){//aqui eu verifico se o rs ta fechado ou não
                System.out.println("Rs não fechado...");
                conexao.close();
            }else{
            System.out.println("Rs ja fechado!");
        }
        } catch (Exception err) {
            err.getMessage();
        }
    }
    return rs;
}

The following is the error:
