Rafael Moreno Valle Rosas (30 June 1968 – 24 December 2018) was a Mexican politician affiliated with the National Action Party (PAN). He was the governor of Puebla from February 2011 through January 2017.[2]
Moreno Valle also served as a deputy of the LIX Legislature of the Mexican Congress representing Puebla and as a senator in the LX, LXI and LXIV Legislatures.[3]
Moreno Valle was the grandson of Rafael Moreno Valle, a doctor and politician who also served as the governor of Puebla from 1969 to 1972.[4] He was also the spouse of Martha Erika Alonso Hidalgo, the first woman governor of Puebla.
Death
[edit]On 24 December 2018, a helicopter carrying Moreno Valle, his wife Martha Erika Alonso Hidalgo, and other PAN politicians from the state crashed in a field near the town of Santa María Coronango,[5] half an hour from the city of Puebla, killing both. In a tweet, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador indicated that Alonso and Moreno Valle were on the downed aircraft.[6] At the time, Moreno Valle was a proportional representation senator.[3] Alonso had become the first female governor of Puebla only ten days before she was killed.
A 27 March 2020 report by Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT) concluded that the helicopter “should not have flown” because of a preexisting problem with a stability system on the helicopter that both the operator and the maintenance crew knew about.[7]
