Isaac Benjamin "Ben" Krentzman Jr. (March 21, 1914–March 29, 1998) was an American lawyer and judge. Krentzman was born in Milton, Florida. He received his Bachelor of Science from the University of Florida in 1935 and his J.D. from the University of Florida College of Law in 1938. Krentzman entered private practice in Clearwater, Florida after graduating from law school. In 1941 he joined the United States Army, serving during World War II and attaining the rank of lieutenant colonel. After being discharged from the Army in 1946 he returned to Clearwater, where he remained in private practice until 1967, serving as town attorney for the Town of Largo from 1946 to 1956, city attorney for the City of Clearwater from 1949 to 1950 and again from 1956 to 1958, and special counsel for the State Road Department from 1960 to 1963. President Lyndon B. Johnson appointed Krentzman to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida on May 24, 1967, to the seat vacated by John Milton Bryan Simpson. Confirmed by the Senate on June 12, 1967, he received commission the same day. In April 1970, Krentzman found Florida Governor Claude R. Kirk, Jr. guilty of civil contempt for not following court orders for desegregate Manatee County schools. He also presided over the trial of Edward J. Gurney, the first U.S. Senator in 50 years to be indicted while in office, on charges of bribery, taking unlawful compensation, and lying to a grand jury. (Gurne was acquitted of all charges).
