The guy accused of murdering his father and displaying off his head in a YouTube video may be seen grinning in his mug photo.
Justin Mohn, 32, was apprehended Tuesday evening at his family’s home in Levittown, Pennsylvania, about 8 miles southwest of Trenton, New Jersey.
Mohn, who was pictured grinning in his mugshot while dressed in a yellow prison jumpsuit, was charged with first-degree murder and abuse of a corpse.
Middletown Township Police raced to the family’s home at around 7 pm on Tuesday after Mohn’s mom came home to discover her husband, Michael F. Mohn, beheaded and covered in blood.
When police arrived at the scene, they found Michael’s body in the first-floor bathroom and his head inside a plastic bag in a kitchen pot placed in a first-floor bedroom, according to an affidavit obtained by ABC affiliate WLNE-TV.
Middletown officers also found bloody rubber gloves in a bedroom on the second floor, a machete, and a large kitchen knife in the bathtub.
The victim’s wife told police that her husband’s Toyota Corolla and her 32-year-old son were missing.
“As far as the crime itself, it’s not something we typically see here,” police captain Pete Feeney said.
Mohn was arrested about 100 miles from the crime scene near a National Guard training facility in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
He was arraigned on Wednesday morning and ordered held without bail
