TikToker Terryon Thomas Denied Bond in Connection to Therapist’s Highway Murder in Louisiana

BATON ROUGE, La. (TCN) — Terryon Thomas, known on social media as "Mr. Prada," was recently denied bond in the fatal attack and murder of 69-year-old therapist William Abraham, whose body was found alongside a highway in Tangipahoa Parish.

According to WBRZ-TV, Thomas appeared in court months ago, but on July 10, a judge denied his bail request, stating bond would only be considered if new evidence emerges.

The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office reported Abraham’s body was discovered on September 29, 2024, wrapped in a tarp by the highway. The coroner confirmed his death was caused by blunt force trauma. Sheriff Gerald Sticker described the crime as a “very physical and very violent attack,” noting extensive bruising and injuries to the victim’s head, shoulders, and neck.

Surveillance footage released by authorities showed the last known driver of Abraham’s car fleeing a traffic stop, crashing the vehicle, and escaping on foot. Investigators later identified Terryon Thomas as the prime suspect.

On October 3, 2024, Thomas was arrested in Dallas and charged with second-degree murder and obstruction of justice. His charge was later upgraded to first-degree murder due to the victim’s advanced age.

Thomas is scheduled for a court appearance in October as the case proceeds.
