Jorge Antonio Rodríguez (February 16, 1942 – July 25, 1976) was a Venezuelan student leader and politician. He was a leader of the Revolutionary Left Movement and, later, founder of the Socialist League.
Rodríguez was detained and interrogated by agents of the Directorate of Intelligence and Prevention Services (DISIP) on July 23, 1976. He was murdered, dying on July 25, 1976. His official cause of death was a heart attack, which was attributed to the torture he was subjected to during his detention. Autopsy found "seven broken ribs, a collapsed chest, and a detached liver". He died at the age of 34, when his children, Jorge and Delcy—who would hold important positions in the government of Nicolás Maduro almost fifty years later–were ten and seven.
