However, Eason’s account under the name @bigolhonky remains active, as does his handle @easondavid88, which he last used in December 2018. At that time, Eason was temporarily locked out of Instagram after he showed off a large collection of weapons on the social media app and threatened to use them on the authorities, according toRadar Online.
Evans, 27,confirmed Nugget’s deathon Wednesday, sharing a photo of the French Bulldog sitting on her lap.
“Nugget…I’m crying everyday,” she wrote. “I love you so much and I’m so sorry. I’m speechless. You were my side kick and knew the moment I felt bad and would cuddle with me. You still had a lot to learn and a lot to grow from your lessons. Everyday I wake up you’re not here, when I come home you’re not here, when I go to bed… you’re not here. You’re gone forever and there’s no coming back.”
A source told PEOPLE on Wednesday that Evanshas not spoken to Easonsince the incident occurred.
“David shot the dog after it came after Ensley,” the source said. “Jenelle has all the kids with her and is not talking to David right now. She’s very upset and is taking time to figure out what she wants to do.”

News of the dog’s death became public after Evans’ exNathan Griffithcalled police on Tuesday to request a welfare check on their 4-year-old sonKaiser.
“The male caller referenced making sure his son was safe because his ex-fiancée’s husband shot a dog in front of him,” the Columbus County Sheriff’s Department told PEOPLE.
The police checked on Kaiser and determined he was safe. Because the call only requested a welfare check, they did not further investigate the claim that Eason shot a dog, police said.
