Three accused in Kenner death of Kansas City reporter facing new charges
KENNER, La. (WGNO) — Three suspects in the case regarding the death of Kansas City Sports Reporter Adan Manzano, are facing new charges.
Danette Colbert, Rickey White and Christian Anderson were arrested after authorities found Manzano dead in his Kenner hotel room days before the Super Bowl.
Reports allege Colbert drugged Manzano as autopsy reports showed a combination of Xanax, alcohol and positional asphyxia as playing a part of Manzano's death. Also, Anderson reportedly rented the car she used on the day he died.
Officials believe this was allegedly a part of a larger scheme of drugging men and stealing their property, which White was allegedly an accomplice in. During the incident Colbert was accused of stealing Manzano's phone and credit cards.
The three each have a $100,000 bond for racketeering. Additionally, Colbert and Anderson have a $250,000 bond for manslaughter while White is being held without bond on that charge.
