Sister Vincenza

|
Sister Vincenza is a central figure in the conspiracy theories in relation to the death of Pope John Paul I. She was brought in as his housekeeper in one of his very first papal acts and was the first to find him dead. One reason for her role in these theories is because there have been several differing reports on the cause of death, and some have remarked on the unseemliness of a woman being in the papal apartments so early in the morning. There has also been confusion over alleged changes in her story. She told French reporters the morning after the death that she had discovered the Pope's body in the bathroom at 4:45 am. She had entered the room after he had not retrieved his morning coffee which she left outside his door. Later, it is claimed, she was sworn to secrecy about the event by Cardinal Jean Villot before being sent to a nunnery. In Popular Culture Sister Vincenze is portrayed by Maroussia Frank in "The Last Confession" a play by Roger Crane.
