Andrew Napolitano told Newsmax on Monday that he briefly met Pope Francis just a month before he died, sharing a dinner with the Pontiff, who he described as “shy” and quiet.
Napolitano told “Wake Up America” that he was invited to speak along with a group of scholars at the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences about a paper on natural rights and natural law.
