Hector Rivera Cruz was Puerto Rico's Justice Secretary during the late 1980s.^[1] When Puerto Rico's Popular Democratic Party took control of the island's Senate after the 1980 election, Hector Rivera Cruz was retained by the legislature to investigate the controversial Cerro Maravilla murders of 1978.^[2] The island senate investigation was from 1983 to 1984, and was led by senate President Miguel Hernández Agosto (of the Popular Democratic Party). Rivera Cruz was the prosecutor who directed this process, which later revealed two young unarmed men were assassinated by members of the Puerto Rico police while kneeling.^[3]

After leading Puerto Rico's Department of Justice, he became the president of the island's baseball winter league.^[4]

He died on 22 May of 2021.^[5]
