The Murdered
Ricardo Rivera
Hartford, Connecticut

💔🙏 Seeking Justice for Ricardo Rivera 🙏💔

On October 21, 2015, 19 year old Ricardo Rivera was tragically shot on Cherry Street in Hartford Connecticut. Police arrived just after 10 p.m. and found Ricardo with a gunshot wound to the head. He later died at the hospital. Another man was also shot but survived. With little evidence recovered and no witnesses coming forward, Ricardo’s family,  including his mother, who continues to plead for answers, is still waiting for justice. Ricardo was a young father whose life was stolen far too soon.
Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward. A reward of up to $50,000 is being offered for tips that lead to an arrest and conviction.
