    LOS ANGELES – A Florida woman, facing charges of attempted murder against pop icon Rihanna and over a dozen other serious offenses, is scheduled to enter a plea in court this Wednesday.

    The charges stem from an incident prosecutors describe, where Ivanna Lisette Ortiz, 35, allegedly fired shots at Rihanna’s Beverly Hills residence on March 8. At the time, the singer was reportedly at home with her partner, hip-hop artist A$AP Rocky, and their three young children.

    Ortiz is accused of committing 10 counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, alongside three charges of shooting at an occupied building or vehicle.

    During her initial appearance in the Los Angeles Superior Court on March 11, Ortiz’s attorney initially entered a not guilty plea. However, this plea was later retracted, with the decision made to delay the arraignment.

    Public records indicate that Ortiz has held a license as a speech pathologist for over ten years. Currently detained with bail set at $1.8 million, she faces the possibility of life imprisonment if found guilty on all charges.

    The Public Defender’s Office has stated, “We will work to ensure that our client receives the full protections guaranteed under the Constitution.”

    District Attorney Nathan Hochman said when Ortiz was charged that Rihanna and Rocky were together in an Airstream trailer at the time of the shooting, while her mother, their children and staffers were in the main house.

    The three counts of firing at a dwelling were for Rihanna’s house, her trailer, and a neighbor’s house, prosecutors said. The 10 assault counts were for Rihanna and family, two staffers and two people in the neighboring house.

    Hochman would not say where any of the bullets landed, discuss a motive or describe any connection between Ortiz and Rihanna, saying all were under investigation.

    A nine-time Grammy Award winner, Rihanna has 14 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including “We Found Love,” “Work,” “Umbrella” and “Disturbia.” She founded the makeup brand Fenty Beauty in 2017.

    She and A$AP Rocky announced the birth of their third child, a girl named Rocki Irish Mayers, in September.
