Justin Mohn, 32, is charged with first-degree murder after allegedly beheading his father at their Levittown, Bucks County, home, then posting a grisly video to social media.
The Bucks County man accused of decapitating his father in January and posting the video of the severed head on YouTube has been ruled competent to stand trial, after a five-hour hearing Thursday.

Yet, a forensic psychologist testifying for the prosecution found Mohn competent, per the report.

Justin Mohn, who was arrested just before 10 p.m. on Jan. 30. 2024 in the area of Fort Indiantown Gap, a sprawling Pennsylvania National Guard Training Center and heliport, made his video manifesto as a "call to arms for American patriots.”
Mohn, of Middletown Township’s Levittown section in Bucks County, held up the head of his father, identified as Michael Mohn, who was in his 60s, and said he was a federal employee of more than 20 years, per the report.
"He is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country,” the younger Mohn stated.
It was not confirmed by this news organization if Mohn’s father was a government employee or what agency employed him.
In the disturbing video that had been removed from YouTube, Mohn called on citizens to attack federal workers, kill federal law enforcement, attack journalists, and he read the name and address of a U.S. Courts judge in Montgomery County.
Mohn complained about immigrants who come into the country illegally, President Joe Biden, other high-ranking federal officials, communists, the "far-left woke mobs,” Black Lives Matters supporters, and those who are part of the LGBTQ community.
"I am now officially the acting president of America under martial law,” Mohn said, calling for a "second American Revolution.”
Mohn talked about Christian scripture, cancelling debt, pivoting the country to Judeo-Christian values, human trafficking, and about how he felt a large tech company was evading taxes.
Later in his video, Mohn, who called for protection from militias, said the FBI had previously threatened to arrest him.
He said the Democratic and Republican parties believed he was the best candidate for president in 2020 and that "there are people” who believe he is the Messiah.
Many of Mohn’s talking points echoed popular topics often focused on by conspiracy theorists and far-right commentators. Some of his grievances overlapped with violent conspiracy theories, like the QAnon movement.
Courts records from late 2023 show that Mohn, a 2014 graduate of Penn State for business management, had sued the government for allowing him to take out student loan debt that he had to repay. His claims centered on his years-long inability to find a good-paying job, and he asked for $10 million.
A federal judge shot down the complaints four times.
Mohn complained in his court cases that he was an over educated white man who couldn’t pay back his loans.
One court filing noted that Mohn had trouble finding a job after college. He moved to Colorado for employment at a credit union and then went to an insurance company for a higher-paying position.
In one federal court filing, Mohn was reported to have had "domestic issues” at an apartment he shared with roommates. The issues led to interactions with the Colorado Springs Police Department.
A 2019 case where Mohn sued Progressive Insurance after he failed to move ahead in the company noted that he was terminated from a customer service job in Colorado because he allegedly kicked open an office door.
In the case, he claimed his lack of advancement at Progressive Insurance and termination were because he was a man.
According to an Amazon listing, Mohn authored several self-published books since 2016, including ones about a new revolution. He noted in the description of a 2017 book that he wrote a letter to then-President Donald Trump.
Among the books was one titled "Poems I Wrote While Stoned” and another was titled "The Second Messiah: King of Earth,” which he wrote was "loosely based on the life of author and musician Justin Mohn.”
On a Spotify account, Mohn had a number of songs that he produced and performed, including "They Came For Justin Mohn,” "I Miss Lauren,” and "Judge Kathy Toilet.”
In one song, he complained about the debts he owed and stated that authorities wanted him to die.
"This is a woman’s world. Empowering only girls,” he sang in one song. "Step on all the men. Kill the cock and praise the hen.”
On a collection of 2019 songs called "Justin’s Stalkers,” Mohn had a song called "Mommunist the Communist” where he complained about living at home and his mom’s advice he pay off his debt. Mohn sang that his dad was jealous of him and wouldn’t let him succeed.
According to public records, Mohn moved to Colorado in 2015 and had returned to Middletown Township in recent years to live with his parents.
Mohn went to Sandburg Middle School and Neshaminy High School, graduating in 2010, according to former classmates.
A June 2010 copy of The Playwickian, the Neshaminy High School student newspaper, said Mohn was involved in boys soccer and had perfect attendance.
Prior to January 2024, Mohn appeared to have no past criminal charges in Bucks County, according to a court search.
