Ricky "Buddha" Ortiz Played by Juan-Pablo Raba
Unflappable, loyal, and good-hearted, Ortiz grew up in a large family in Albuquerque, New Mexico, raised by first-generation immigrants from Mexico. On the team, he鈥檚 the buffer between Graves and Caulder. He keeps the peace with an even keel 鈥 hence his nickname, 鈥淏uddha鈥. Ortiz not only found a mentor in Rip, but Rip was also responsible for introducing Ortiz to his wife, Jackie. After Rip鈥檚 shooting, Ortiz is pushed to the limit and his anger threatens to cloud his judgment.
