Mack was shot to death in November 2018 near Lamar High School as a result of a war between two gangs, according to the district attorney’s office. Mouton was reported to have lured Mack and another girl outside of the school as part of a coordinated attack. That’s when Mack was ambushed by two people who police say pulled up in a car, jumped out, and fired shots at the teen.
As Mack was on the ground dying, one of the suspects allegedly stood over him and continued shooting.
Mouton was arrested in August 2019 on a murder charge.
So far, two others, Kendrick Johnson and Dave’on Thomas, have already been sentenced in this case. Johnson was given life in prison, while Thomas was given 50 years.
