The wealthy businessman whose execution caused riots in Saint-Domingue was Vincent Ogé. In the late 18th century, Ogé, a free man of color, advocated for the rights of free people of color and was executed in 1791 after leading a rebellion against colonial authorities. His execution sparked widespread unrest and riots, as it highlighted the deep racial and social tensions in the colony, ultimately contributing to the Haitian Revolution.
