An unemployed Pennsylvania resident and self-proclaimed militia leader uploaded a 14-minute YouTube video that displayed the severed head of his father, whom he said "is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to this country". Police later confirmed that the father had died and his head had been removed, and charged him with first-degree murder and abuse of a corpse. The video was removed from YouTube about five hours after it was published and the YouTube channel was terminated. The offender, 33-year-old Justin Mohn, was found guilty of first-degree murder (Mohn's victim was his own father, Michael Mohn who died at age 68) and sentenced to life imprisonment without parole in 2025.
