Some Famous People called Carmen Ortiz
Carmen Ortiz
Carmen Milagros Ortiz (born January 5, 1956) is an attorney, college instructor, and former United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts.
In 2009, she was nominated to the position by President Barack Obama. Ortiz was both the first woman and the first Hispanic to serve as U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts. She succeeded Michael Sullivan in that position, with Michael J. Loucks serving as the interim U.S. Attorney between Sullivan's resignation and Ortiz's confirmation. Noteworthy prosecutions by her office include those of Whitey Bulger, Tarek Mehanna, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, as well as the controversial prosecution of Aaron Swartz which resulted in his suicide.
In December 2016, Ortiz announced that she would step down from her post in January. Her announcement was not unexpected, due to the fact that President Donald Trump would have the authority to name new U.S. Attorneys.
