The suburban Philadelphia man charged with decapitating his father and posting a video online in which he held up the severed head had a device with photos of federal buildings and apparent instructions for making explosives when he was arrested, authorities said Thursday.
Justin Mohn, 32, faces a dozen new charges, including terrorism and theft, in the death last month of his father Michael Mohn, the Bucks County District Attorney’s office said Thursday.
A woman who answered the phone at the Bucks County Public Defender’s office, listed as Mohn’s attorney, declined to comment on Thursday.
According to prosecutors, Justin Mohn fatally shot his father with a pistol he bought the day before and then used a kitchen knife and machete to decapitate Michael Mohn at the Levittown house where they both lived.
One thing that I hope eventually happens as conservatives become more delirious is that the children of these parents are apprehended by CAS and taken away. As someone who has a big interest in extremists and spends a lot of time in their spheres, I can say without a doubt that most of them are very dangerous for their children. They are unvaccinated, uneducated (they literally prop them up in front of conspiracy theory YouTube all day under the guise of homeschool), malnourished, unregistered in any legal sense much of the time, and don’t socialize with others, as well as being physically disciplined. The guy who killed his kids in Mexico for Qanon reasons illustrates how dangerous these people are to children, as well as the guy who killed his kid for almost being vaccinated (this is much less well known and heartbreaking: https://longreads.com/2023/04/06/a-vaccine-dispute-turns-deadly/)
Sorry, source on that guy in Mexico? Haven’t heard about it
It happened in 2021.

Yeah it’s frightening that there’s literally a cult developing of home schooled zealots brought up on the wackiest conspiracies on YouTube. I was friends with a guy that was brought up by intese Jehovah’s witnesses and even though he stopped participating and believing it took a long time for him to understand the stuff they’d taught him was crazy - like he was shocked that I believed in evolution because as far as he knew it was long since disproven.
The real problem was critical reasoning skills and learning skills, he had no idea how to verify information or seek out out from reasonable sources. I think we’re going to get a lot of people in the same boat, except a lot more violent and terrified of the world.
