In a chilling and deeply disturbing case, 32-year-old Justin Mohn was arrested Tuesday night, facing murder charges and possession of an instrument of crime with intent—after allegedly killing his father, Michael Mohn, inside the Middletown Township home they shared.
Police were dispatched to the scene around 7 PM, responding to a 911 call reporting a deceased individual at the residence. When officers arrived, they discovered Michael’s body inside the bathroom. The emergency call was placed by Michael’s wife—Justin’s mother—though authorities have not yet revealed her exact whereabouts during the incident or her current condition.
According to investigators, Justin fled the scene following the brutal act. He was eventually located several hours later, approximately 100 miles away near a National Guard training facility in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
What adds a horrifying layer to the case is a graphic YouTube video that surfaced before being swiftly removed by the platform. In the 14-minute clip, Justin can be seen handling what appears to be a human head sealed in a plastic bag. Another shot allegedly shows Michael’s severed head simmering inside a cooking pot. The footage sparked outrage online before YouTube executives intervened and took it down.
Authorities have not yet revealed a clear motive behind the killing. However, Mohn’s disturbing online rants hinted at deep-seated resentment toward his father, whom he labeled a “traitor.” His content also included aggressive tirades against President Joe Biden, the LGBTQ+ community, Black Lives Matter, and Antifa.
During his arraignment on Wednesday morning, Justin Mohn was denied bail.
