But Stracener never made it to his destination.

The next day, Oct. 31, the car Stracener had been driving was found just a couple miles away, abandoned near leased hunting property by La. 10. Authorities said the car was found unlocked and with the keys in the passenger seat. There was no sign of Stracener.

After nearly six years, no answers in missing person case - American Press

It’s been nearly six years since Bradley Stracener went missing — and there are still no answers as to his whereabouts. Stracener was last seen on Oct. 30, 2019, in Vernon Parish. “We, the Vernon Parish Sheriff’s Office, have no evidence at this point in time or any information that has come...

<<According to Vance, before Stracener went missing, he borrowed his girlfriend’s car, went to his mother’s house and stole subscription medication from her. He then took some of the medication and traded some for methamphetamine — ultimately “double dosing” himself all day long. His girlfriend’s vehicle was later found parked against a hunting lease gate. Vance said Stracener was known to trespass upon hunting leases, looking for deer cameras to steal and sell for a profit.

When his mother filed a missing persons report on Nov. 5 2019, Stracener had an active probation and parole warrant for his arrest. Vance said based on prior experiences when warrants were issued against Stracener, it wasn’t uncommon for him to go into hiding — oftentimes camping on the creek for weeks at a time. “We located him on the creek before after a month or so of him being out there, so it wasn’t uncommon for him to disappear when he had a warrant out for his arrest,” Vance said.

Vance said Stracener would have another reason to go into hiding, as well — his girlfriend threatened to have her vehicle reported as stolen.>>

The mother of a Vernon Parish man missing for more than six years has been found dead, according to Beauregard Parish authorities.

Sheriff Mark Herford confirmed to the American Press that an investigation is underway into the circumstances surrounding the death of Toni James. Herford said her body was found in her car parked outside her Beauregard Parish residence last week. Toxicology and other test results are pending, Herford said.

James had been vocal on social media the last few years, accusing Vernon Parish detectives of mishandling the investigation into the disappearance of her son, Bradley Stracener, and alleging they were covering up his homicide. Stracener was last seen on October 30, 2019 in the Sandy Hill area in Vernon Parish.
