Kansas City sports reporter Adan Manzano was found dead in his hotel room while covering Super Bowl LIX. Two suspects, Danette Colbert and Rickey White, have been charged in connection with his death. Colbert has been charged with second-degree murder for allegedly drugging Manzano, while White faces charges related to theft and fraud. Following the charges, Tico Sports, the outlet Manzano reported for, issued a statement expressing their support for his family and colleagues during this difficult time.
New details have emerged, including surveillance footage showing Manzano entering his hotel room with Colbert, who was the only one seen leaving shortly after. It has also been reported that Colbert has a history of drugging men, theft, and fraud. A toxicology exam revealed that Manzano had Xanax in his system at the time of his death, a drug not prescribed to him. Investigators believe Manzano’s death was caused by a combination of alcohol, Xanax, and asphyxiation. Colbert and White are currently being held in county jails as investigations continue. The case remains ongoing as more information is gathered.
