He was voiced by Rino Romano.
== Biography==
Prior to the events of the game, José became the leader of the guerrilla movement against Salvador Mendoza's regime after the latter usurped the power in San Esperito. He was captured, tried and found to be guilty of all charges, resulting in his imprisonment in El Grande Fort.
After the Agency began operations against San Esperito's government, their agent Rico Rodriguez was sent to infiltrate the fort José was held in. He freed the rebel leader and escaped with him in tow. José reunited with his sister Esperanza and Rico at the rebel base, but had to escape quickly due to a military ambush.
José stays out of focus for the rest of the game, aside from the mission where he infiltrates a broadcast station with Rico's help and gives a rousing speech to the people of San Esperito, encouraging them to stand up against Mendoza. It's unknown if he became the new ruler of San Esperito after Mendoza's ousting and death.
==Personality ==
José is able to remain determined and defiant even in the face of danger, best demonstrated by him insulting his jailers even as he is blindfolded and tied up in the prison, unaware that Rico has come to rescue him. He shows gratitude towards Rico for saving him, going as far as to consider him one of his people. He seems to be on good terms with his sister, who helps him run the rebellion.
It's unknown how selfless José's motivation truly is and if he genuinely believes anything he's said in his speech to the people of San Esperito, but he is nevertheless very passionate when preaching about his cause.
