Justin Mohn allegedly left his dad Michael F. Mohn's head in a cooking pot in a bedroom after showing it in a YouTube video on Tuesday, Jan. 30, police detailed in an affidavit of probable cause obtained by Daily Voice.
Many years before this deadly behavior, Mohn did some unusual things, including filing a federal suit against Progressive Insurance in Colorado. In the suit, he claims that he was hazed and forced out of the company.
He went on to explain that as "an author of two books and a musician" he could "muckrake" Progressive for "the progressive of our society" and then he detailed why they should simply pay him $300,000 instead. In the complaint, he says "affirmative action" was the "real reason" he was let go.
The case was eventually dismissed but it dragged on from the time he was fired in 2016 until 2020, but his audacious legal suits weren't over. He filed a $10 million lawsuit against the US government in 2020. In the court documents, he claims the US government purposely hid the risks of student loans and misled his family about his ability to find work after graduating from Penn State in 2014.
With a degree in Agribusiness Management, he claimed he would never be able to find work as an "over-educated white man."
He took out the loan, which was supposedly co-signed by his parents, in 2010. He did make payments towards the loan over the years and moved to Colorado in 2016 for a job at a credit union — which he left in Oct. of that year for the Progressive insurance position. In the lawsuit, he states that the credit union should pay him $80 for "quality of life damages."
After the Progressive job ended, he experienced a "snowball of debt," court documents detail. He said by 2020 his debt was over $12,00 and was affecting his credit score to the point where he had to move back to Pennsylvania.
In the lawsuit against the US, he named US Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona as the individual he wanted to sue. He explained that, "the Department of Education encourages high school students to attend college but does not advise white male students of the risks of a college education financed through student loans."
His final federal case against the US government for $10 million over his student loan was dismissed in Pennsylvania on Dec. 6 by the Honorable Mark A. Kearney who wrote the following in the emailed notice to Mohn:
"We dismiss with prejudice as plaintiff has now been twice advised he cannot plead a negligence claim based upon a non-existent duty of the United States as a lender on a student loan program."
