interim Director Antonio Pappalardo was removed from his post
Thursday after calling Pope Francis an anti-pope.
Last Tuesday, the head of the Justice Ministry's Department of
Juvenile and Community Justice, Antonio Sangermano, ordered "an
investigation into the statements attributed to the director",
an investigation that led to his removal Thursday. According to
reports from some parliamentarians, Pappalardo accused Pope
Francis on social media of being "an 'anti-pope' who had taken
over the Church".
