*TikTok star Terryon Thomas, known online as Mr. Prada, is behind bars and charged with second-degree murder in the death of Baton Rouge therapist William Nicholas Abraham.
Hip Hop Wired reports that Thomas was arrested on Oct. 1 after authorities found Abraham’s body wrapped in a tarp near a Louisiana highway on Sept. 29. The 20-year-old was apprehended in Dallas County, Texas, after crashing Abraham’s stolen vehicle during an attempted traffic stop. He was extradited from Texas to Louisiana and is being held with no bond at the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison. Thomas, a social media influencer, has more than 4 million followers across two of his TikTok accounts.
An arrest warrant from the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office states that surveillance footage captured Abraham entering Thomas’ apartment late last month, according to The Associated Press. Witnesses reported seeing Thomas hours later, struggling to drag a blue tarp down the stairs of the building and placing it in Abraham’s car. When investigators searched Thomas’ apartment, they discovered blood “throughout the apartment.” There were also indications that Thomas tried to clean up the scene, the affidavit said.
“At this time, there is no evidence to suggest that Thomas was a client of Abraham,” the release said.

“It was a very physical and very violent attack,” Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Gerald Sticker told WAFB. “He was bludgeoned about in the head shoulders and neck.”
“Dr. Abraham was a very kind, very tender, very gentle man,” said Jarret Ambeau, a Baton Rouge lawyer and friend of Abraham. “No one deserves to die this way, but I would have never expected someone of his disposition to have been violently murdered.”
