Overview
- California authorities revoked Ivanna Lisette Ortiz’s license to practice speech-language pathology after the alleged attack, with court documents citing a request from the state board to block her from working.
- Ortiz faces one count of attempted murder, ten counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and three counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling, and she has pleaded not guilty.
- Her bail remains set at $1.875 million under a stay-away order, and a judge denied her bid to cut bail to $70,000 based on claimed financial hardship.
- Prosecutors say she fired roughly twenty rounds from an AR-15–style rifle at Rihanna’s home while the family was inside, striking an Airstream trailer and a neighbor’s property, and they allege the act was premeditated.
- Ortiz held her credential since 2016 and it was valid through 2027, so losing it immediately blocks her from working in her field as the criminal case moves toward trial with no date set.
