The murder trial began this week for a Pennsylvania man accused of beheading his father and posting images of his alleged crime on YouTube.

Justin Mohn, 33, faces over a dozen felony charges, including first- and second-degree murder, related to the death of his father, 68-year-old Michael Mohn. On the night of January 30, 2024, Justin reportedly shot his father and then beheaded him, later alleging that the elder Mohn resisted a “citizen’s arrest.” Justin subsequently uploaded a 14-minute anti-government tirade to YouTube, during which he displayed his father’s severed head wrapped in plastic, declaring, “Mike Mohn is in hell for being a traitor to his country.”

Michael Mohn was a semi-retired federal employee of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Nearly 18 months following Michael Mohn’s death, Justin Mohn’s bench trial commenced on Monday. His mother, Denice Mohn, whose age wasn’t provided, testified about her experience upon discovering her husband’s headless body in their home’s first-floor bathroom. The Associated Press reported Denice Mohn’s testimony, where she recalled, “I believe I screamed,” and added, “I was screaming out front. I think I dialed 911.”

Denice Mohn, according to courtroom coverage by the Bucks County Courier Times, mentioned that she noticed a change in her son’s behavior after he returned to his parents’ house in Levittown from Colorado. She informed the court that both she and her husband suspected their son might have experienced an “emotional breakdown” while in Colorado, as he would send them “nasty texts.”
