Cops revealed that his remains were wrapped in a tarp.
A probe was launched and police have named a popular influencer as a person of interest, as reported by the ABC affiliate WBRZ-TV.
He has been identified as Terryon Ishmael Thomas, 20.
Thomas, 20, is known as Mr Prada on the social media site TikTok.
He has two accounts on the platform and has racked up more than eight million followers.
On September 30, he allegedly failed to stop for cops when driving a Lincoln MKZ car registered to Abraham, according to an arrest warrant seen by The U.S. Sun.
Thomas allegedly refused to comply with the orders that cops were giving.
Cops claimed he reversed into police cars before fleeing the scene.
Thomas faces charges of resisting an officer as well as aggravated criminal damage.
Police officers have not named Thomas a suspect in connection with Abraham’s death.
Abraham’s body was found in a ditch near Highway 51 outside the Village of Tangipahoa – an hour from Baton Rouge – on Sunday.
Gerald Sticker, a sheriff, revealed that the ex-priest’s head, shoulder, and neck were covered in bruises.
He described the suspected attack as “violent and physical” and said Abraham had been bludgeoned.
“It was a very physical scene,” the cop admitted.
LAST MOMENTS
Details that shed light on Abraham’s final moments have since been uncovered.
Abraham’s roommate said the ex-priest left the property on Saturday to clean his car, per WBRZ.
He then planned to fill in some paperwork when he got back to his office but never returned.
Abraham’s brothers have been left wanting answers but have paid tribute to their sibling.
Joseph and Tommy Abraham described him as an entertainer and someone who was full of life.
“I want to know who did it, and I want to know why,” Tommy told WBRZ.
Abraham’s attorney said he has been left stunned.
“I’m absolutely devastated and completely surprised that something like that could have happened to a man who I believed to be so tender, so gentle, and have such a servant’s heart,” Jared Ambeau told the Fox affiliate WVUE-TV.
Cops have not yet revealed a motive.
Abraham was a priest for more than a decade working in Mississippi and Milwaukee before becoming a therapist.
Abraham, known as Dr. Nick, had more than 30 years of experience tackling issues of substance abuse and depression, according to his website.
He was also a motivational speaker and recording artist.
