The Pennsylvania man accused of beheading his father and holding up his severed head in a YouTube video while railing against the Biden administration has been hit with new terrorism charges.
Justin Mohn, 32, was initially charged with first-degree murder, felony possession and abuse of a corpse in connection with the gruesome death of his father, 68-year-old Michael Mohn.
The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office announced Thursday that additional charges had been filed.
These included three charges of terrorism, two additional charges of criminal possession, one charge of theft and various thefts and related offences.
Investigators say Mohn had a USB device in his possession at the time of his arrest that contained photos of federal buildings and instructions on how to make explosives.

The 32-year-old is accused of beheading his father while they were alone in the family’s Levittown home on January 30.
Mohn’s father worked for the US Army Corps of Engineers Philadelphia District and was branded a “traitor to the country” in his son’s lengthy manifesto, which was posted online shortly after the assassination.
In the video, Mohn offered a $1 million bounty to anyone who could kill top officials, including FBI Director Christopher Wray, Attorney General Merrick Garland and former Attorney General Bill Barr.
The 14-minute clip was viewed more than 5,000 times before it was removed.
One of Mohn’s grievances with the Biden administration was the belief that “woke mobs” were “destroying the country.”
His talking points reflected beliefs related to QAnon, a far-right conspiracy theory that relies on made-up claims by anonymous individuals named “Q.”
Mohn’s mother, Denice, discovered her husband’s decapitated body when she returned home and called the police.
Police found the severed head in a plastic bag placed in a cooking pot in a bedroom.
In the bathroom next door, investigators retrieved a large kitchen knife and a machete from the tub. Bloody rubber gloves were also found in a first-floor bedroom.

Angela Watson, communications director for the Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, told DailyMail.com that Mohn’s cell phone was pinged while he was traveling around the state.
As Middletown police rushed to arrest him at the military base, they warned nearby businesses to lock their doors.
“He was subsequently located outside the facility, where officers discovered his vehicle, but he was not inside,” Watson said.
“There was another ping at the facility and at that time the State Police were notified. Mohn was found walking with the installation on one of the main roads and taken into custody without incident.”
Watson added that he had a firearm.
Fort Indiantown police were notified of his presence in the area at 9 p.m. The 32-year-old was arrested shortly afterwards and held in a cell overnight before being transferred to the Middletown Police Department.
In the gruesome YouTube clip, Mohn briefly discussed his motivations behind his father’s murder before launching into a long-winded rant against the government.
As the camera rolled, he held up Dad’s severed head, wrapped in plastic.
“This is the head of Mike Mohn, a federal employee for over 20 years… and my father,” Mohn said. “He is now in hell forever as a traitor to his country.”

The 32-year-old claimed he could have been “the first unanimously elected president since George Washington.”
Investigators say at the time of his arrest he was carrying a flash drive containing photos of government buildings and instructions on how to make explosives.
The University of Colorado graduate called himself “the commander of America’s national network of militias, which you may know as Mohn’s Militia.”
He frequently referred to God and Satan and called on people to follow him.
“Before the 2020 presidential election, some voters and campaign workers from both the Republican and Democratic parties saw me as the best candidate for president of America, despite my age,” Mohn said.
He claimed he “could have been the first unanimously elected president since George Washington.”
The Pennsylvania man previously filed a lawsuit against the United States after he failed to secure a job.
According to 2023 court documents, Mohn argued that he deserved more than $10 million from the United States because his degree “did not lead to better jobs or higher wages, but rather disadvantaged him because he was seen as an ‘overeducated, white male.’ and the policy of ‘affirmative action’ is damaging his career prospects.”
