‘Bourbon Street Hustler,’ arrested after Kansas City reporter’s death, needs resentencing: AG

Louisiana’s attorney general has stepped in to seek a harsher sentence for past crimes committed by a woman who was arrested after the death of a Kansas City-based Telemundo reporter during Super Bowl week in New Orleans.

Danette Colbert was arrested in Jefferson Parish in February and charged with fraud and theft for allegedly using debit and credit cards belonging to Adan Manzano, who was found dead in his hotel room outside New Orleans while covering the Super Bowl for Dallas’ local Telemundo affiliate KGKC.  

The Orleans Parish Coroner reportedly found Xanax in Manzano’s system. He did not have a prescription for the medication. 

Colbert was allegedly seen on hotel security footage with Manzano early in the morning of his death in Kenner, leading to suspicion that he was drugged.
