• The Bourbon Street Hustler: The Tragic Death of Adan Manzano

  In this gripping episode, we delve into the tragic story of Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old sports reporter for Telemundo Kansas City, who was found dead in his New Orleans hotel room on February 5, 2025, while covering Super Bowl LIX. Surveillance footage revealed that Adan was last seen with Danette Colbert, infamously known as the "Bourbon Street Hustler," who has a notorious history of fraud and theft. Authorities suspect that Colbert may have drugged Adan to facilitate a robbery, as similar accusations have been made against her in the past. This episode explores the events leading up to Adan's untimely death, the ongoing investigation, and the broader implications of such crimes in vibrant cities like New Orleans. Join us as we uncover the details of this heartbreaking case and discuss the measures travelers can take to protect themselves from similar dangers.

• The Skelton Brothers: A Heartbreaking Reality

  It’s been nearly fifteen years since Tanya Zuvers last saw her three sons—Andrew, Alexander, and Tanner Skelton. But instead of a long-awaited reunion, she’s now standing in a Lenawee County probate courtroom in Michigan, alongside her attorney, making a request that no parent should ever have to make: Tanya has come before the court to petition for her children, who would now be adults, to be declared legally unalived. After years of searching, hoping, and fearing—it’s an acknowledgment of the unthinkable. A declaration that her children, who vanished under the care of their father in 2010, are never coming home. This is the story of the Skelton brothers—a story of loss, unanswered questions, and a fight for justice.  Thanks to the sponsor of this week's show: BetterHelp Visit betterhelp.com/crimesalad to get 10% off your first month.

• Charlie Brant: Dark Secrets

  On January 3rd, 1971, sixteen-year-old Angela Brandt was curled up in front of her family’s new color TV, getting settled back into their home located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, after having spent two weeks vacationing in Florida.  That evening, Angela and her family were watching the TV show, The FBI. "Unknown Victim," Season 6, Episode 16, just aired. An episode where kidnappers abduct a young woman, mistakenly believing she is the daughter of a millionaire. In reality, she is the daughter of a middle-class couple who was driving a car that belonged to the intended victim. While engrossed in the show, Angela had no idea that, all too soon, she was about to live through a horrific ordeal—one that she had only ever heard about. After the show, Angela went up to her room to read. Her mother, who was pregnant, Isla Brandt, ran a bath and started reading Time magazine. While her father, Herbert Brandt, was shaving. The night seemed like any other as the family went about their typical, nightly routines.  That is until the quiet stillness of the casual night was shattered in an instant—when gunshots echoed through the house.  Upgrade your selling experience today at Shopify.com/crimesalad and take your business to the next level!
