"There he [Frassati] took the scapular of the Third Dominican Order, assuming the name Fra Gerolamo, which was the first name of the Dominican martyr Savonarola. To anyone who greeted him with that name he replied: "May I imitate him in the struggle and in virtue."

Based Frassati. Savonarola was right.

Sam So was Joan of Arc. He definitely went overboard with his criticism of the Pope at the time, but he was orthodox in his beliefs.
