FATHER MATEO RUIZ (PAST)'S HISTORY

Mateo Ruiz came to Port Charles after being released from prison a changed, and holy, man. His evil twin, Manny was a Miami-base mobster who terrorized the people of Port Charles before he was killed. That's what brought Mateo Ruiz to town, n fact. He wanted to try to make up for the bad that his brother did to the community. Currently he is a priest at Sonny's church, although some people aren't quite convinced that he's really a changed man. During the Metro Court hostage crisis, Father Ruiz killed one of James Craig's armed gunmen in self defense, and he caught some of the retaliating gunfire in the chest. He recovered.
