Investigators said Mouton walked out of school with Mack just five minutes after receiving a text message from 19-year old Kendrick Johnson asking if Mack had left yet.
Prosecutors believe Mack was interested in the girl and that's how she was able to lure him to a specific location.
Johnson, who was also arrested on murder charges, was previously found guilty and sentenced to life behind bars.
