A Pennsylvania man has been arrested after allegedly killing his father, before displaying his decapitated head in a gruesome YouTube video while spouting right-wing conspiracy theories…
In the YouTube video, which was titled “Mohn’s Militia - Call To Arms For American Patriots” and is cited in a police complaint, Mohn is seen wearing gloves and holding his father’s head in a plastic bag. Later, the head can be seen in a cooking pot.
Mohn says his father was a federal employee for 20 years and refers to him as a traitor,** calling for the death of all federal officials and attacking President Joe Biden’s administration, the Black Lives Matter movement, the LGBTQ community and antifa activists**. YouTube removed the video, which is more than 14 minutes long, hours after it was posted.
Why must these red hat losers take down loved ones and others in their spiral down the Qanon rabbit hole? Will the Qanon grifters ever be held accountable for their roles for feeding these types with misinformation and radicalizing those that will go to these extremes just to sell the latest hat, tee-shirt, flag, subscription?
These grifters and the homegrown white terrorists are the real threats…
not to detract from the seriousness of this crime, but it’s killing me that I keep seeing “decapitated head”, when it should be “disembodied head”. it’s his body that’s decapitated.
Never too serious for a healthy dose of pedantry.
And I am taking note to your wording because it’s so easy to come off negatively when being pedantic, yet you’ve avoided that quite elegantly.
Indeed, their head surely is capacitated.
How bad is it killing you?

“Federal official” in this case being an engineer for the US Army Corp of Engineers.
How long until Trump promises to pardon?
If he ends up back in a position to do that and follows through, hopefully he’ll adopt the guy too.
I mean, we’ve all been there… /s
Why do they say allegedly? I don’t think there are many scenarios where you are holding your father’s head in that context where you are not the one who killed him
This is standard practice in journalism to avoid libel lawsuits. Until there’s a conviction, you say “allegedly”. The media’s role is to report facts not to determine legal guilt.
Presumably either as a matter of principle, and/or to avoid any potential liability. Probably more the latter. Pre-trial it’s alleged, post trial it’s convicted. If for whatever reason there wasn’t a conviction, the news outlet could potentially be on the hook for defamation.
I’m not a lawyer, and this is just a guess.
Good. He deserves to be.
Is this not considered normal behavior?
…asking for a friend
Finally, something interesting on YouTube. The algorithm should like it too: two faces with craaaaazy expressions.
Censorship has gone too far!
So he was basically the average modern American?
The saddest part is that some of these “Q” people were probably actually abused in life and no one ever listened to them or respected their truth because the average American is so naive to how evil Humanity actually is. Humanity is fucked in all ways. We make these people… All of us… We as a society create these situations because people would rather fuck off and be greedy then live for a proper community that builds growth respect and honor. This is what happens when living for anything other than humanity as a whole.
I agree that abuse and neglect could very well be the root of many, many ills in society. And we should be doing much better about preventing it and protecting children.
While many survivors don’t go on to become violent nor develop antisocial personality disorders, some few do. And then those few cause pain and suffering for many especially if they get into positions of power.
This guy was not the average American. It isn’t typical to do what he did. Surely you don’t really think that.
I think it is quite likely he suffers from a severe, untreated mental health issue and/or was severely abused, but I’m not a psychiatrist and even if I was you can’t diagnose someone reading about them in a news article.
