A TikTok star is behind bars after he was arrested in connection to the murder of a therapist whose body was found along a Louisiana highway over the weekend.
Terryon Thomas, also known as “Mr. Prada” on the popular social media app, was detained Monday by authorities in Dallas County, Texas, according to a booking sheet obtained by Page Six.
The 20-year-old has been hit with several charges, including damage to property, resisting an officer and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. He is being held without bond.
The vehicle in question belonged to William Nicholas Abraham, a Baton Rouge, La.-based therapist whose body was found wrapped in a tarp on the side of a highway on Sunday.
The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office in Hammond, La., said the coroner’s office determined Abraham, 69, died as a result of blunt force trauma. His death was ruled a homicide.
On Monday afternoon, Tangipahoa Parish authorities released surveillance camera screenshots of an individual they said was the last person seen driving Abraham’s vehicle in Baton Rouge.
That same person sped away from cops during a traffic stop and fled on foot after crashing the car.
Per 4WWL, East Baton Rouge Parish court records show that Abraham was arrested in 2015 after being accused of inappropriately touching an 11-year-old boy during a therapy session.
However, he was never charged.
Tangipahoa Sheriff Gerald Sticker said he is aware of Abraham’s previous arrest but is working on finding out where he was killed.
“Right now, we have no inclination as to where this originated,” Sticker said.
“We are exercising all of our avenues. Whether it’s cell phone data or license plate recognition.”
Last year, Thomas, who has over 4 million followers on TikTok, joked about “practicing” for his mugshot.
“practicing for my mug shot cuz this might be the year someone gonna meet God if they piss me off too much,” he captioned a May 2023 video on TikTok.
In the clip, Thomas stood in his bathroom as he turned to the side and posed like one would for a mugshot.
