The aunt of Justine Mone, the conspiracy theorist accused of beheading her father and flaunting his head in a YouTube video, says her family is in complete shock over her brother’s gruesome murder.
“I can’t believe it. It’s so refreshing.” Mary Jash told the Daily Mail Her 68-year-old brother, Michael Mone, was decapitated Tuesday at his home in Levittown.
“I can’t believe it,” Jash said of her family’s reaction.
“I can’t even think what it is. [Michael’s] My wife is in pain,” she said of her sister-in-law, Denise Mone, whose headless body was accidentally discovered on Tuesday.
“Nobody can believe it.”
Her brother worked as a geological and environmental engineer in the Philadelphia area for the Army Corps of Engineers for more than 20 years before he was allegedly killed by her son, who said in a YouTube video that his father “was a federal employee over the age of 20. ” he declared. For years,” he said, holding up his bloody head for everyone to see.
“We are deeply saddened to learn of the tragic death of our teammate Michael Mone,” the Army Corps said in a statement.
“At this time, our thoughts and prayers are with the Mohn family as we focus on supporting our grieving employees.”
Justin was arrested Tuesday night in his father’s death and charged with first-degree murder, abuse of a corpse and possession of an instrument of crime with intent to kill, and was photographed grinning.
His mother, Denise Mone, called police at around 7pm after discovering her husband’s headless body and “extensive blood stains surrounding it.” According to court documents obtained by Levittown Now.
“Officers also discovered that the deceased was found in a plastic bag inside a cooking pot next to the bathroom of a first-floor bedroom,” Middletown County police and Bucks County detectives said in court documents filed Wednesday morning. “We found the head of a man who had died.”
Police said a machete and a large kitchen knife were found in the bathtub, and bloodstained rubber gloves were found in the first-floor bedroom.
As police investigated the brutal murder, a 14-minute YouTube video (before it was taken down) showed Mohn holding up a severed head in a bloody plastic bag and claiming it was his father’s. (viewed by the Post).
“He is now in hell forever as a traitor to his country,” Mohn said, before going on a relentless rant against the government in line with the QAnon conspiracy theory and joining “militia” across the United States. He called for the murder of federal employees. “on site.”
The video, titled “Mohn’s Militia – Call to Arms for American Patriots,” was posted to YouTube around 5:30 p.m. and appears to have been recorded in a bedroom, with Mohn on the computer. It looks like he’s reading out a manifesto written on the screen.
In the video, Mohn goes on a rant against immigrants, the Biden administration, the LBGTQ community, Black Lives Matter, and the “woke mob of the far left,” while claiming that he is the commander of a network of American paramilitary groups. He claims that there is, and calls for the massacre and public execution of people. FBI agents, IRS agents, U.S. marshals, federal judges, Border Patrol agents and others have “betrayed their country.”
He was later spotted wandering around the Fort Indiantown Gap complex with a gun. The facility is a sprawling campus more than 100 miles from the home of the man accused of killing his father, a spokesperson for the National Guard and Veterans Affairs Department confirmed to the Post.
According to the Bucks County Courier-Times, Mone was later arrested without incident and Middletown Police Chief Joe Bertrilla told the victim’s wife that Mone’s brother had not seen the video or that the video had been sent. He said he instructed them to notify the police before the incident occurred.
“We’ve been contacted by some people in the community who know us and know him and his family,” Bartolilla said. “And we’re hearing a lot. Just from the calls we’re getting, it’s clear he’s well known within the community.”
Neighbors said they noticed young Mohn starting exhibiting strange behavior over the summer.
“He just started acting strange” Bert DeHaven told 6ABC.
“I called the police a few times because he was sitting right there and kept staring at my house. I was like, ‘There’s something wrong with this.'”
DeHaven said she did not feel threatened by Mohn’s actions.
“You know, when I got home, he just picked him up and moved,” DeHaven noted, calling the behavior “bizarre.”
But in his private life, Mone shared rambling content online, including songs and books about demons, stalkers, and corrupt presidential candidates.
He once wrote a pamphlet entitled “America’s Coming Bloody Revolution,” in which he suggested that an “inevitable” violent revolution would require killing his family.
“Americans must consider which is worse: allow them to lose their freedom and independence, or kill their family members, teachers, co-workers, bosses, judges, elected leaders, and other older generations.” “There will be a need,” he wrote.
Mr. Mohn has also filed at least three lawsuits against federal agencies, including the U.S. government, over student loan debt.
One of the lawsuits alleged that the U.S. government “negligently and fraudulently” coerced him into taking out student loans from 2010 to 2014 to pay for his education at Penn State.
He claimed he should have been warned that a degree in agribusiness management would not help him secure a job because he was an “overeducated white male.”
Mohn was arraigned at 4 a.m. Wednesday and was denied bail, according to court documents. He is scheduled for a hearing on February 8th.
