Ivanna Lisette Ortiz — the Florida woman who was charged with attempted murder for allegedly firing multiple rounds into Rihanna‘s Los Angeles home — pleaded not guilty in a court appearance Wednesday.
A request by Ortiz’s attorney — a public defender — to reduce her bond was rejected. Her bail is currently set at $1,875,000, KABC-TV reports. Ortiz was seen behind glass in a custody area and only spoke Wednesday to agree to waive her right to a speedy preliminary hearing, the Associated Press reports.
This comes after her first court appearance on March 11 where Ortiz’s lawyer entered a not guilty plea on her behalf but then withdrew it.
Following the shooting, police trailed Ortiz’s white Tesla Model 3 into a shopping center parking lot, where they arrested her.
Ortizwas charged with 1 count of attempted murder, 10 counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and 3 counts of shooting at an occupied vehicle or dwelling. If convicted, she could face life in prison.
Disturbingly … Ortiz seemed to be preoccupied with Rihanna for some timebefore the shooting. She appeared to post about the “Umbrella” artist and shared videos in which she mentioned the singer’s death.
