Mr. Rivera, 45, initially pleaded not guilty after his extradition from Haiti in February.
Mr. Rivera could face a life sentence on four charges of conspiring to kidnap or kill Mr. Moïse.
On the night of the assassination, Mr. Rivera led a convoy of vehicles that assaulted the president’s residence, according to an indictment against 11 accused conspirators.
Mr. Moïse was shot 12 times at a close distance and died instantly.
“It is likely to be the defendants that were on the ground in Haiti on the night of the assassination.”
