The so-called “Bourbon Street Hustler” suspect arrested in connection with a Super Bowl reporter’s Feb. 5 death can be seen in a new security camera photo from the Kenner, Louisiana, hotel where the reporter died just before authorities found him.

Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old Telemundo reporter based in Kansas City, Missouri, traveled to New Orleans on assignment to cover Super Bowl LIX.

He was found dead on Feb. 5, the same day security footage from the Comfort Suites hotel in Kenner allegedly showed Danette Colbert entering Manzano’s room and Colbert leaving by herself later on, according to Telemundo 39.

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. More charges may be filed once a medical examiner completes Manzano’s autopsy.

“She’s definitely a career criminal. All her crimes are against … persons, such as access device frauds, simple robberies, thefts, things of that nature,” he told reporters.

He added that there are three separate criminal cases “in which she’s got access to their personal information and their credit cards in that manner, and there’s several others on her rap sheet.”

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 reads.

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