    In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss two cases where men were possibly drugged to death by women.

    Sports reporter Adan Manzano (27) was found dead with no signs of trauma in his New Orleans hotel room in February 2025. Adan had been in the city to cover the upcoming Super Bowl. When police began investigating, they discovered Adan was last seen with a female ‘career criminal,' Danette Colbert. Danette has a history of drugging and robbing men. It was discovered that Danette used Adan’s credit card after his death. His cause of death is still pending with the Medical Examiner.

    Indiana man Harold Allen died in 2022 from what was initially thought to be natural causes. It was only after his step-daughter, Ashley Jones, staged a robbery that his death was investigated. It came to light that Harold was likely poisoned to death with ethylene glycol by his wife Marsha and Ashley. The women tried multiple times to kill Harold with varying substances before they were successful. After Marsha was questioned by police, she took her own life. Ashley is currently awaiting trial.
