New evidence directly linking Danette Colbert to Adan Manzano's death allowed detectives to obtain an arrest warrant for an upgraded charge to murder, police said.

Danette Colbert is facing a second-degree murder charge in the death of Adan Manzano, who was covering Super Bowl LIX for the Kansas City Telemundo affiliate.

Danette Colbert, the woman last seen with a Super Bowl reporter who was later found dead in his Kenner hotel room, has been booked with second-degree murder in his death, Kenner police confirmed Tuesday.
