One Year Later: Justice for Samuel Henderson Jr. Still Demanded

One year ago today, we posted notice that we would be speaking with Molonee, Vanity, and Kayla as they shared the story of their loved one, Samuel Henderson Jr., and pleaded for justice.

Their courage remains a powerful reminder that the fight for truth and accountability continues. We stand with the Henderson family and echo their call: justice delayed is still justice denied.

Concerning Threat Made Toward Tioga High School

Rapides Parish, La. (Sept. 29, 2025) – The Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office (RPSO) reports that another social media threat has surfaced, this one directed at Tioga High School.

Sheriff’s Detectives and the Cyber Crime Unit are actively investigating, stressing that every threat is treated as credible until proven otherwise. Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact RPSO at 318-473-6700.

Officials acknowledged that today’s “copycat” threats are straining schools and law enforcement, but said they will not disrupt normal school operations. Additional security measures will be in place as a precaution.

“We will follow all leads where they take us and arrests will be made,” RPSO stated, emphasizing their commitment to student safety.

UrbanCast will continue monitoring this situation as updates are released.

But most of all, I want to thank the parents for their patience and understanding during this very scary and difficult time.
