The Pennsylvania man accused of murdering his father and then uploading a YouTube video featuring his decapitated head claimed in court that he believed his father intended to prevent him from becoming a political figure akin to Donald Trump.
Justin Mohn, 33, made the admission as he faces murder and other charges stemming from the Jan. 30, 2024, homicide of Michael Mohn.
“I was hoping to perform a citizen’s arrest on my father for, ultimately, treason,” Mohn stated during a hearing in a suburban Philadelphia court on Wednesday, as reported by the Associated Press.
Mohn also mentioned that his political views differed from those of his parents, whom he described as being on the left politically. When asked about the beheading, he expressed that he wanted to deliver a message to federal government employees, demanding actions such as their resignation and the cancellation of public debt, among other requirements.

Police said last year that Mohn posted a YouTube video holding his father’s decapitated head and called for violence against government officials.
Mohn was arrested hours after the killing and charged with first-degree murder, abuse of a corpse and possession of an instrument of crime.

Mohn also went to a National Guard training camp after beheading his father in an attempt to mobilize troops against the federal government, the Bucks County’s district attorney said.
