A judge in Doylestown, Pa., ruled that the man accused of beheading his father in their suburban Philadelphia home earlier this year is competent to stand trial. The ruling came after a lengthy proceeding where the defendant, Justin Mohn, appeared in court wearing a yellow jumpsuit and expressed willingness to work with a new attorney.
During the hearing, a forensic psychologist testified that Mohn appeared intelligent, calm, and socially appropriate. The psychologist noted that Mohn objected to using a mental health defense and displayed self-interest in his actions.
