MJP –
In a Houston court on August 6, a distraught mother named Dahlia Mack swore at the lady who had lured her son to his death when he was a teenager.
“You anger me. Check me out! You frighten me. In a victim impact statement presented in court, Dahlia informed Keona Samireal Mouton—her son’s killer—that she should have been flushed instead of being born. This information was revealed by KHOU 11.
“Please, don’t weep. “Those shackles on your ankles, that’s Delindsey Mack,” the distraught mother remarked, while the rest of the Mack family remained silent, overcome with grief.
Her son, Delindsey, was a senior in high school who had just moved to a different school to avoid gang activities. He had a crush on Keona Mouton, a 16-year-old classmate. On November 13, 2018, Mouton convinced Delindsey, whose “soft” demeanor earned him the moniker “Baby Huey” among family friends, to meet her after school. On the contrary, he was brutally ambushed by two men after Mouton led him into it.
Delindsey was killed one month before he was to graduate from high school, according to his grandmother, who spoke to reporters.

The 22-year-old Mouton was found guilty and handed a 23-year prison term after being tried as an adult. Among the three murderers found guilty thus far, Delindsey’s family has witnessed each trial and conviction, according to KHOU11. At this time, just one gunman—whose identity has not been revealed—is still at large.
To obtain justice for the victim and his family, we want to hold all of those involved. This was not simply an ambush, but an execution that was planned and carried out by numerous persons,” stated Kim Ogg, the district attorney of Harris County, in a news release issued on August 7.
A life sentence for his part in the murder of Mack was handed out in 2021 to infamous gang member Kendrick Johnson, who was the first to stand trial. According to Ogg, “He seemed to be striving for celebrity status in the gang world by killing as many people as possible,” as reported by ABC 13, and he had already been linked to six other killings.
Ogg identified Dave’on Thomas as the getaway driver, and in 2023, he was sentenced to 50 years in prison for his role in the fatal shot.
Delindsey, according to the prosecution, fostered an online persona befitting a mobster that belied her actual character. According to authorities, he was slain just feet away from his high school. Two feuding gangs in Houston had him in their sights because of his social media activities.
Although Delindsey was well-known for his oratory skills, he was not a criminal. … “Delindsey had an alternative persona where he presented himself as something that he was not,” his pastor, D.Z. Cofield was observed during a press conference held at the time of his death.
Even though Delindsey’s parents were known to be “supporting their child” and enforced stringent curfews, they were in the dark about his online persona until after the shooting.
As evidence of her plot to pretend to be in a relationship with Delindsey and kill him, prosecutors presented deleted text conversations from Mouton.
The murder of Delindsey Mack took place in a location where children should be protected, but Assistant District Attorney Sarah Seely pointed out that Keona Mouton had a hand in orchestrating the crime.
After completing half of her 23-year term, Mouton, who was tried as an adult, will be eligible for parole.
