In a shocking case from Levittown, Pennsylvania, Justin D. Mohn, 33, was found guilty of murdering his father. Bucks County Judge Stephen A. Corr rendered the verdict following a chilling January 2024 incident where Mohn shot his father, Michael F. Mohn, and uploaded a gruesome video of the aftermath to YouTube before it was swiftly taken down.

Prosecutors painted a picture of calculated violence, revealing that Justin executed the murder with a newly acquired pistol before decapitating Michael using a kitchen knife and machete. His actions were intended as a message to federal workers, demanding their resignation among other demands.

Mohn's trial uncovered a background of violent anti-government rhetoric and radical plots, including photos of federal buildings and bomb-making instructions in his possession upon arrest. The high-profile bench trial concluded with Judge Corr dismissing Mohn's defense of saving the nation as overtly violent and unfounded.
