PENNSYLVANIA - A Pennsylvania man who posted a video of his father’s severed head on YouTube was convicted of murder and sentenced to life without parole. Bucks County Judge Stephen A.
Corr found Justin D. Mohn, 33, guilty in the January 2024 shooting death of his father at their home in the Philadelphia suburb of Levittown. After the sentencing, Bucks County Dis-trict Attorney Jennifer Schorn told reporters Mohn had exhibited a “complete and utter lack of remorse”, calling it an “unimaginable, unfathomable crime”. “We are satisfied that this was the right outcome to guarantee that the community at large is safe from Justin Mohn,” Schorn said. Prosecutors said Mohn shot his father, Michael F. Mohn, 68, with a newly pur-chased pistol, then decapitated him with a kitchen knife and machete. The 14-minute YouTube video he posted was live for several hours before it was removed. Mohn testified during the trial that he shot his father while trying to arrest him on what he said were false statements and treason but his father resisted, so he fired at him. He said he severed his head to send a message to federal workers to meet his demands, which included their res-ignation among other things. (The Gleaner)
