Investigation into Orlando officer's involvement in 92-year-old's death addressed by State Attorney
WESH 2 Investigates is pursuing answers in the case of a 92-year-old grandmother who passed away after a collision involving an Orlando Police cruiser last weekend. The Orlando PD's traffic homicide unit is currently looking into the incident, with the State Attorney’s Office ultimately responsible for determining if the officer will be charged. State Attorney Monique Worrell stated that they are unable to comment on this specific case while the investigation is ongoing. The daughters of Milagros Ortiz, the grandmother who tragically lost her life in the crash, spoke out in an interview, demanding accountability for their mother's death. Worrell explained that proving vehicular manslaughter requires showcasing more than just an accident and includes a component of recklessness. The State Attorney expressed confidence in the investigation process, including an internal review of the officer's actions, to determine any criminal liability.
