Woman With History of Drugging Men Is Arrested in Connection to Death of Telemundo Reporter Covering Super Bowl in New Orleans
New York Post ^ | Feb. 7, 2025 | Natalie O'Neill

A Louisiana woman with a history of drugging men and stealing their credit cards was arrested in connection to the death of a Kansas City Telemundo reporter while he was in New Orleans to cover the Super Bowl, police said Friday.

Danette Colbert, 48, of Slidell, was busted after she was captured in surveillance camera footage leaving journalist Adan Manzano’s hotel room, then allegedly using his credit card at stores around the Big Easy, NBC News reported.

She was captured in surveillance camera footage leaving the 27-year-old reporter’s hotel room in the suburb of Kenner before going on the alleged shopping spree, according to police.

Adan Manzano was found unresponsive in his hotel room in a New Orleans suburb. Colbert has so far only been charged with property crimes, including bank fraud and theft — but she has previously been accused of drugging at least two men and going on shopping sprees with their cards, Kenner police said. She has a rap sheet “that includes allegations of drugging men, theft of currency, fraudulent use of credit and debit cards, and other financial crimes,” Kenner Police Chief Keith Conley said.

“Manzano’s 24-year-old wife, Ashleigh Boyd, died in a car crash in Topeka, Kansas, in April — and his death leaves their toddler daughter without parents, WIBW reported.”

Tragic life choices.

“...there were a number of 3X and 4X motels...”

Can you define what 3X or 4X is?

A friend of mine is curious...

I was thinking the same thing. Like maybe a 2 dollar whore but no more than 2 dollars.! 2 dollars with a no murder no robbery clause.

Sad. Didn’t even pick a decent looking hooker.
Must have been on a very limited expense account.

More likely, she drugged him at the hotel bar without his knowledge and then helped him back to his room while he was unable to consent (and barely walk).

I'm sure that's her story and she's sticking to it.........LOL!

Just curious, would your wife fall for that bullshit excuse?

Why is a decent looking 27-year-old calling that for sex? Boggles the mind.

The little head thinks before the big head I guess.

That’s uncalled for, seriously.

He was there to cover the NFL super bowl, and met a woman - had a few drinks, and took her back to his hotel room.

That doesn’t mean he should be drugged, and die for it.

That is likely what happened.

Probably didn’t mean to kill the guy and assumed she would get off on probation again...but this time something went way wrong.
