州法院法官南希·米勒周一判处49岁的丹妮特·科尔伯特总共60年监禁：因勒索罪判处50年，因过失杀人罪在阿丹·曼扎诺死亡案中再连续判处10年。曼扎诺是西班牙语新闻机构Telemundo Kansas City的记者。科尔伯特的同案犯里基·怀特因勒索罪被判处45年监禁。
Nancy Miller, a state court judge, on Monday sentenced Danette Colbert, 49, to a total of 60 years in prison: fifty years for racketeering and a consecutive 10 years for negligent homicide in the death of Adan Manzano, a journalist for the Spanish-language news outlet Telemundo Kansas City. Colbert’s accomplice, Rickey White, was sentenced to 45 years’ imprisonment for racketeering. The sentences come just days after a jury in the suburban New Orleans community of Jefferson parish, Louisiana, convicted both Colbert and White, 35, for their roles in the 5 February 2025 death of Manzano, 27.
判决结果在陪审团于新奥尔良郊区杰斐逊教区裁定科尔伯特和35岁的怀特在2025年2月5日曼扎诺死亡案中扮演的角色有罪后仅几天就宣判。曼扎诺当时27岁。
Manzano had traveled to the New Orleans area to cover the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl clash with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was found dead in his hotel room in Kenner, Louisiana, the suburb where New Orleans’ international airport is, days before the Chiefs lost the big game to the Eagles.
曼扎诺前往新奥尔良地区报道堪萨斯城酋长队与费城老鹰队的超级碗对决。他在肯纳市的一间酒店房间内被发现身亡，肯纳是新奥尔良国际机场所在的卫星城，距离酋长队在超级碗中输给老鹰队仅几天时间。
The Jefferson parish coroner’s office, whose jurisdiction includes Kenner, said Manzano died from positional asphyxiation. An autopsy found Xanax and alcohol in his system.
管辖范围包括肯纳市的杰斐逊教区验尸官办公室表示，曼扎诺死于体位性窒息。尸检发现其体内含有阿普唑仑（Xanax）和酒精。
Prosecutors said Manzano was among the victims of a yearslong operation in which Colbert, White and a co-defendant who testified against them – Christian Anderson – targeted unsuspecting tourists in the city’s French Quarter. The group allegedly lured victims with the promise of sex before drugging and robbing them.
检方称，曼扎诺是一个持续多年行动的受害者之一，科尔伯特、怀特和一名作证指控他们的共同被告克里斯蒂安·安德森在该市的法国区以性为诱饵，引诱毫无防备的游客，随后对他们下药并抢劫。检方称，该犯罪企业可追溯至2012年。
Prosecutors said the criminal enterprise dated back to 2012. Manzano’s father addressed his son’s death at Monday’s sentencing via a videoconferencing platform.
曼萨诺的父亲周一通过视频会议平台在量刑听证会上谈及了儿子的死。根据杰斐逊教区检察官保罗·康尼克办公室的一份声明，曼萨诺的父亲称这次量刑是“对我和我的家庭来说是悲伤的一天”。
According to a statement from Jefferson parish district attorney Paul Connick’s office, Manzano’s father called the sentencing “a say day for me and my family”. “May the laws of this country lock up the people that destroyed my life,” he testified.
他说：“愿这个国家的法律将毁了我生活的人关进监狱。我恭敬地请求法官判处他们应得的刑罚。”
“I respectfully ask that you give them the sentencing they deserve.”
据当地新闻频道WVUE报道，父亲补充道：“他们夺走了他的梦想、生命和家庭，就在他快乐成功的时候。”曼萨诺的母亲则表示：“我不想对犯下这起罪行的人说什么，因为他们是黑暗的生灵，是没有上帝在生命中的人。
According to local news channel WVUE the father added: “They snatched his dreams, life and family as we were seeing him happy and successful.”Manzano’s mother, meanwhile, said: “I don’t want to say anything to the people that committed this crime, because they are beings of darkness, beings that don’t have God in their lives.
“但我不认为他们应该继续生活、继续作恶和杀人——因为我仍然无法接受阿丹不在了……这种损失，我永远无法释怀。我不希望任何人、任何家庭经历这种痛苦。”
“But I don’t think they should go on with life causing harm and killing people – because I still can’t accept that Adan is not here … This loss, I’ll never overcome it. I don’t wish this on anybody, on any family.”
据报道，曼萨诺的表弟卡洛斯·卡斯蒂略说：“我想看着你们的眼睛说，你们应该用余生来偿还这笔债……每当牢门打开却见不到光时，你们就想着我的表弟。”
A cousin of Manzano, Carlos Castillo, reportedly said: “I want to look you guys in the face and say that you should pay your entire life for this … Every time the cell opens and you cannot see the light, you think of my cousin.”
曼萨诺的妻子阿什利·博伊德于2024年4月在堪萨斯州托皮卡的一场车祸中丧生。托皮卡法官在9月21日为期一天的审判后，裁定托德·W·阿姆斯特朗车辆过失杀人、超速和逆向行驶罪名成立，这距离曼萨诺案件的陪审团裁决仅四天。博伊德和曼萨诺的女儿埃莉诺（现年三岁）由外祖父母抚养长大。
Manzano’s wife, Ashleigh Boyd, was killed in an April 2024 car crash in Topeka, Kansas. A Topeka judge found Todd W Armstrong guilty of vehicular homicide, speeding and driving on the wrong side of the road after a one-day trial on 21 September, four days after the jury verdict in Manzano’s death in Boyd and Manzano’s daughter– Eleanor, now three – is being raised by her maternal grandparents. Months after Manzano’s death, Colbert received a 25-year prison sentence for being found to have violated her probation on a prior theft and fraud conviction and being classified a habitual offender.
曼萨诺去世几个月后，科尔伯特因被认定违反了之前盗窃和欺诈罪的缓刑规定，并被认定为惯犯，被判处25年监禁。
Miller on Monday told Colbert that her “behavior in this matter [is] quite alarming”, according to WVUE.
据WVUE报道，米勒周一告诉科尔伯特，她“在这件事上的行为相当令人震惊”。
“You were indifferent to the impact that your actions had,” Miller said.
“你对自己的行为所带来的后果毫不在意，”米勒说道，“这从你一贯的犯罪记录中就可以看出来。显然，你已经这样做了很长时间。现在，其中一名受害者的死亡终于让你自食恶果了。”
“That is evident by your consistent pattern in your criminal history. Apparently, you’ve been doing this for quite some time. It’s finally caught up to you with the death of one of your victims.”
