20-Year-Old TikTok Star Arrested In Case Of Slain Therapist Wrapped In Tarp

A Louisiana therapist’s body was found rolled up in a tarp on the highway — and now an arrest has been made. Upsettingly, it’s a very young TikTok star.

On Sunday, Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office responded to a horrifying scene. On the side of a highway, the body of 69-year-old William Nicholas Abraham was found by a passerby, rolled up in a tarp, and left to rot. The chilling way in which the therapist and life coach died was said to be from blunt force trauma, according to law enforcement. The death was immediately ruled as a homicide.

The Sheriff’s Office got to work, and were able to name a person of interest pretty quickly. They released some surveillance camera photos of the last person believed to be connected to Abraham. A young man shown in the photos was believed to have been the last person driving the victim’s car.

The person of interest was then identified from a police lineup as Terryon Thomas — or as many know him from his TikTok fame, Mr. Prada 456. As Mr. Prada, he’s known for his viral relatable content, which includes lots of fashion and music. The 20-year-old boasts 4 MILLION followers on the video-creating platform and nearly 23.4 million likes. He’s a genuine internet celeb.

A warrant was promptly released for the Terryon’s arrest. According to USA Today, authorities finally caught up with him in Texas. During a routine traffic stop, police said, he attempted to flee — driving the slain therapist’s car no less.

The social media star hasn’t yet been charged with anything relating to Abraham’s death, but what he has been charged with is unauthorized use of a vehicle, aggravated criminal damage to property, and resisting arrest. He was booked into Dallas County Jail and is being held without bond.

As for Abraham’s death, the TPSO confirmed to People on Wednesday the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office has taken over the case and is continuing to investigate it. It’s unclear if Terryon entered a plea, and it’s also not been made clear if he and Abraham even knew each other before the man’s death. Will he be charged with the murder? Is this the end for Mr. Prada?
