Summary
- 21-year-old Daikerlyn Alejandra Gonzalez indicted for manslaughter
- Crash killed 18-year-old Ava Moore on Grapevine Lake over Memorial Day
- Family pushing for legislative reforms to improve waterway safety

In a tragic incident that occurred over Memorial Day weekend, a 21-year-old undocumented immigrant named Daikerlyn Alejandra Gonzalez has been indicted on a manslaughter charge for fatally striking 18-year-old Ava Moore with a high-speed jet ski on Grapevine Lake.
According to the report, Gonzalez allegedly fled the scene with a man who later crashed his car before escaping. A passenger on the jet ski remained at the scene and spoke with officers, but Moore was pronounced dead at the hospital due to her injuries.
The victim's family is devastated by the loss, but they are grateful that the case is moving forward. They are conducting an independent investigation into water patrol policies, enforcement protocols, and safety measures at the local, state, and federal levels, with the goal of holding any responsible parties accountable. The family is also pushing for legislative and policy reforms to improve waterway safety, including increased patrols, more visible signage, and a dedicated emergency response line for incidents on the water.
"Texas lakes can be extremely dangerous without proper oversight, and meaningful reforms are necessary to protect the public and prevent future tragedies," said the family's attorney, Ty Stimpson. "Lake safety must be a priority, not just during high-traffic holidays, but every day."
