Pope Francis has died
Elected to the See of Peter in March 2013, Argentina's Jorge Mario Bergoglio was the first non-European pope in 1,000 years. Considered a bold reformer by some, lax in defending tradition by others, he had to deal with clergical sexual abuse scandals. He died on Monday, April 21, at the age of 88, the Vatican said.
