Was Pope John Paul I murdered? This mob man says he was there

Crime Story

About this episode

Pope John Paul I was only 33 days into the job when he was found dead. While the Vatican insists he died of a heart attack, they have never been able to shake rumours of murder and conspiracy. Now, one man with ties to the mafia has come forward alleging that he knows the pope was murdered — because he was there. The question is: do you believe him?


This week on Crime Story, we discuss The Confessions of Anthony Raimondi with host Marc Smerling.
