A:
Pope Saint Marcellinus was bishop of Rome from 296 to 304 CE. In 303 CE, during the Great Persecution, Marcellinus handed over copies of the Scripture and sacrificed to the idols. The story of his defection has been challenged, the evidence for it is convincing. Reliable documents treated the story as an established fact even as they tried to present it favourably, especially by saying he immediately repented, recanted, and died a martyr.
Pope Saint Marcellinus was eventually venerated as a martyr, but John W. O'Malley S.J. (A History of the Popes) says there is no reliable evidence for his martyrdom. This legend probably grew out of attempts to exonerate Saint Marcellinus for his defection.
