A second individual is now facing charges of second-degree murder in connection with the death of a reporter covering the Super Bowl in early February in New Orleans.

Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old sports reporter for Telemundo based in Kansas City, Missouri, was in New Orleans for Super Bowl coverage when he was discovered deceased with Xanax in his system at the Comfort Suites hotel in Kenner, Louisiana. Officials reported that the cause of death was the toxic combination of Xanax and alcohol. They described his position as “face-down in a pillow with no signs of lividity around his nose and mouth.”

Authorities apprehended and charged 45-year-old Danette Colbert two days following the discovery of Manzano’s body. Nicknamed the “Bourbon Street Hustler” on social media, Colbert had accumulated multiple fugitive and fraud charges as well as a robbery charge related to his death.

Colbert was also charged with second-degree murder. Rickey White, her alleged accomplice, was also arrested in relation to the incident on charges of simple robbery and several counts of fraud.

Danette Colbert, 45, whom Kenner police described as a “career criminal,” is facing four counts of being a fugitive, two counts of a traffic violation, one count of “purse snatching,” one count of aggravated device fraud, one count of illegal transfer of funds, one count of bank fraud, one count of computer fraud and one count of robbery.

“Then [Colbert] came out, ran to the store, came back about 30 minutes later, and within 10 or 15 minutes, she left the room. And he was never seen again on any video other than when he went into the room. So, she was the last one to be with him,” the police chief added.

One of Manzano’s credit cards was missing when detectives were processing his hotel room, leading them to obtain a search warrant for the credit card history, leading law enforcement to Colbert.

Colbert is connected to several other alleged drugging and robberies in both New Orleans and Las Vegas, and may be connected to another man’s death in New Orleans.

“We suspect that the investigation will lead to her being involved in another death case in the city of New Orleans back in December,” Conley said. “We are working with [the New Orleans Police Department]. We’re working with state police and the attorney general’s office to get as much information as we can before we come to any conclusions because, in cases like this, you have to investigate, you can’t just speculate.”
