Ivanna Lisette Ortiz<\/a>, the woman accused of firing shots into the singer\u2019s Los Angeles home, was previously involuntarily committed under Florida\u2019s Baker Act, per TMZ<\/a><\/em>. She later lost custody of her 10-year-old child.<\/p>\n

An attorney for Ortiz\u2019s ex-husband Jed Nikko Valdez Sangalang, Hal Roen, revealed to the outlet that Ortiz was previously \u201cBaker Acted\u201d in Florida prior to 2023. This means she was placed in a psychiatric facility against her will under state law, which permits up to 72 hour involuntary or voluntary psychiatric holds.<\/p>\n

Roen went on to describe Ivanna as \u201carticulate\u201d and \u201cvery believable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIf you sit down with her, she\u2019s very convincing. But she does bizarre things,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to court docs obtained by TMZ<\/a><\/em>, a Florida judge awarded Sangalang full physical custody of their child in April 2024. Ortiz was fully stripped of all contact with their child, barring her from any in-person, phone, video, text, email or third party communication with the child until further order from the court.<\/p>\n

Ortiz admitted she had previously been Baker Acted during sworn testimony, but she claimed it was based on false accusations. The judge ordered a social investigation after citing \u201cconcerning testimony\u201d about her mental health.<\/p>\n

While Ortiz sought a domestic violence injunction against her ex, the court noted that one of the incidents she relied on resulted in her own arrest for domestic violence. To explain the custody ruling, the judge wrote the court feared Ortiz might not return the child to the father.<\/p>\n

As for why she set her sights on Rihanna, multiple alarming videos on Ortiz\u2019s social media appear to offer a bizarre motive for the attack. In a series of videos, she claims the Fenty founder was \u201cstealing\u201d from her, was \u201cjealous\u201d of her and was a \u201cwitch\u201d with a \u201cdevil\u2019s face.\u201d<\/p>\n

In one Youtube upload, she says: \u201cGot Rihanna over there all jealous \u2026 because how am I \u2026 how am I \u2026 because her face is the devil. Rihanna\u2019s face is the devil.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t like her and she\u2019s always trying to steal from me,\u201d she continued. \u201cAnd she has not ever put out any music to reach people. She only put out her little music so she could do witchcraft \u2026And so that she can steal from people. So everybody please stop \u2026 don\u2019t listen to her, don\u2019t follow her \u2026 because she\u2019s stealing from you.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued in another video: \u201cEven though the devil and Rihanna are really loud, God and Jesus Christ are doing something \u2026 and myself. Because the devil, he doesn\u2019t want it to be me, he doesn\u2019t want me to be a Christian woman of God, because that\u2019s what it is, I\u2019m indifferent to Rihanna, I\u2019m indifferent to a lot of your girls devil.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As BOSSIP<\/a><\/em> previously reported<\/a>, Ortiz was booked for attempted murder on Monday after allegedly firing multiple rounds into Rihanna\u2019s home from her car Sunday.<\/p>\n

Sources revealed to The Post<\/a><\/em> that Rihanna was home at the time with her three kids, but her partner, A$AP Rocky, was not. Insiders went on to say that the singer \u201cdoesn\u2019t understand\u201d why her family was targeted and \u201cis freaking the f**k out\u201d after the attack.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cRihanna heard the shots, but was initially confused about what happened,\u201d one source told People<\/a><\/em>. \u201cEven with a great security team in place, it\u2019s scary to realize that something like this can still happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
