The “career criminal” accused of stealing a Super Bowl reporter’s credit cards after he was found dead in his Kenner, Louisiana, hotel room earlier this month may be tied to a second man’s death in the Big Easy, according to Kenner Police.

Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old Telemundo reporter based in Kansas City, Missouri, traveled to New Orleans on assignment to cover the Super Bowl last week and was found dead in his room at the Comfort Suites hotel in Kenner Feb. 5.

Danette Colbert, 45, nicknamed the “Bourbon Street Hustler,” is facing multiple fugitive and fraud charges, as well as a robbery charge, in connection with Manzano’s death.

“We suspect that the investigation will lead to her being involved in another death case in the city of New Orleans back in December,” Kenner Police Chief Keith Conley told Fox News Digital. “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.”

Colbert may face additional charges as the investigation into Manzano’s death develops. It was not clear if she had retained an attorney.

Telemundo 39 remembered Manzano as “a true professional and a rising star who exemplified excellence in his work” in a statement. 

“We will deeply miss Adan and his passion for sports and the contributions he made to the local community,” the statement says.

Manzano’s wife, Ashleigh Boyd, died in a car crash last year in Kansas.
