The 'Bourbon Street Hustler' Danette Colbert is now confronted with a second-degree murder assessment after she reportedly lured a super bowl reporter last month.
The connoisseur police also announced on Tuesday that Rickey White, a complicit of Colbert, was arrested for his alleged role in the death of Adan Manzano. The police say that White was 'hand in hand' with jacket.
Colbert, 48, was arrested after she accompanied Telemundo reporter Manzano, 27, to a hotel room in New Orleans, where he was later found dead.
Exclusive CCTV images obtained by DailyMail.com showed that Colbert and Manzano arrive together in the Comfort Inn Hotel in connoisseur, Louisiana before she left alone.
Last month a provisional toxicology exam found that the Manzano system contained the depressive benzodiazepine, including the medicine that is usually sold under the brand name Xanax.
Manzano was in New Orleans from Kansas City, Missouri to cover the Super Bowl between the Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles.

Telemundo Kansas City reporter Adan Manzano, 27, was found dead in his hotel room
Security images – exclusively obtained by Daily Mail – showed that Manzano and Colbert entered the Comfort Inn in connoisseur on 5 February.
He seemed coherent and followed jacket through the lobby, to his room. It remains unclear where the couple met.
Manzano was no longer responded on 5 February at 3 p.m. after colleagues called for a welfare check.
The reporter – a recent widower whose wife died in April 2024 – had not appeared before their afternoon meeting.
Colbert, on the other hand, left the room twice. She first appeared at 4.45 am and left the room alone and returned 20 minutes later.
She then made two trips to the reception, where it seemed that she asked for an extra key for the room.
She was then seen to leave the room at 5.21 hours for the last time.
Colbert, a serial fraudster, was arrested days later after he was caught on Manzano's credit cards in stores in New Orleans.
Manzano had no recipe for Xanax or other depressants based on his medical records and the medicine is often used to facilitate theft by inducing Amnesia, investigators have said.

The police say they have also found Xanax from the home of Colbert.
Overdoses of the drug can lead to 'extreme sleepiness' and 'possible death', according to the American drug Enforcement Administration.
Authorities have said that Colbert later used the Manzano credit card to make a purchase at a gas station in New Orleans and various stores in the area.
Last year a jury of Louisiana Colbert found guilty of theft and fraud in a non -related matter.
In 2022, Colbert was arrested twice in Las Vegas for crime accusations of Grand Larceny and the administration of a medicine to help with a crime crime, according to judicial data.
In both cases she was accused of drug men in their hotel rooms and stealing them, but the charges were rejected because the victims did not want to testify in court, said Colbert's lawyer for those cases, Daniel Lippmann said.
