Houston woman sentenced for Lamar High School shooting; authorities continue search for second shooter

A 22-year-old woman named Keona Samireal Mouton has been sentenced to 23 years in prison for being involved in the 2018 shooting that resulted in the death of 18-year-old Delindsey Mack at Lamar High School in Houston. The Harris County District Attorney’s office is still searching for the second shooter involved in the incident and is seeking the public’s assistance in locating them.

Sentencing and Conviction

A jury found 22-year-old Keona Samireal Mouton guilty of murder on Tuesday for her involvement in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Delindsey Mack on November 13, 2018. The Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg’s Office released a photo of Mouton following the conviction.

When the shooting took place on November 13, 2018, Mouton was only 16 years old. He was found guilty of orchestrating Mack’s death, which was a planned execution carried out by multiple individuals. Kendrick Johnson, who was one of the shooters, was sentenced to life in prison in 2021, while Dave’on Thomas, who acted as the getaway driver, received a 50-year sentence last year.

Ongoing Search for Second Shooter

Officials are still searching for the second shooter involved in the incident. It is believed that the crime was a result of an ongoing gang conflict. However, Mack, who had recently transferred schools to avoid violence, was not a part of any gang. He was known for his exceptional skills as a football player.

Call for Public Assistance

Kim Ogg, the District Attorney of Harris County, along with Assistant District Attorney Sarah Seely, highlights the significance of public cooperation in identifying and capturing the remaining suspect. Ogg affirms their unwavering dedication to bringing all the culprits to justice.

If you have any information, the Houston Police Department and the Harris County District Attorney’s office are encouraging you to get in touch with Houston Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477). Your assistance could be valuable in solving a case.

Authorities are currently conducting an ongoing investigation to bring closure to the case.
