The woman accused of opening fire on Rihanna’s home with an assault rifle made a disturbing threat to the popstar online just days before the shooting.
Ivanna Ortiz, 35, who is a Christian influencer, took to Facebook on February 23 to share a message directly targeting the singer, 38, the Daily Mail can reveal.
Sharing an image of herself in a leopard-print top, Ortiz, who is facing an attempted murder charge, posted: ‘@badgalriri Are you there?
‘Cause I was waiting for your AIDS 5-head self to say something to me directly instead of sneaking around like you talking to me where I’m not at.’
In other posts to her social media Ortiz, who is also a former pageant queen, said she was ‘threw [sic] with Rihanna’ and branded the pop star a ‘turn hiding b****’.
The Daily Mail can reveal that Ortiz has previous arrests for domestic violence, careless driving, and for violating pretrial release conditions in Florida.
In December last year she filed an appeal to overturn a decision in her home state in which the custody of her child was given to her former partner.
Police in Los Angeles say that it was Ortiz who opened fire with an AR-15-style rifle on the Beverly Hills home that Rihanna shares with her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, on Sunday.
