00:00My father, he is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country.

00:05It is said that those who commit treason and betray others occupy the lowest pits of hell for all time.

00:10These were the chilling words uttered by Justin Maughan just moments after he fatally shot,

00:16then beheaded his own father, and displayed the severed head on YouTube.

00:20Charges have been filed in a gruesome killing in Bucks County.

00:24A man was found decapitated in a home.

00:26Police took his son into custody 100 miles away, and they believe there was more to this murder than just a family grudge.

00:33On January 30th, 2024, residents of Pennsylvania were shocked to learn the details of this disturbing family tragedy.

00:40A year and a half later, the adult son behind the killing has taken the stand

00:45in a murder trial that prosecutors described as something straight out of a horror film.

00:50Here's everything we know about the brutal beheading and the crazed conspiracy theories of the accused.

00:56On the third day of his trial in suburban Bucks County, 33-year-old Justin D. Maughan coldly told the court

01:02how he fatally shot his dad, Michael Maughan, age 68, in the head during a, quote, citizen's arrest.

01:10Justin was living at home with his parents in Levittown while he was looking for a job,

01:15and apparently becoming radicalized.

01:17I unfortunately had to use deadly force, he said in his testimony, which eerily echoed what he told

01:23Philadelphia's NBC10 in September of last year.

01:27Well, I wasn't expecting this, I had a speech ready, but I don't have that speech on me.

01:32A lot of other people around America believe that the federal government has betrayed America,

01:36they're destroying the country, and we have to do something to take our country back.

01:40What does killing your father have to do with that?

01:43Well, he was a federal employee and betrayed me.

01:45I was trying to perform a citizen's arrest, he resisted that citizen's arrest.

01:48It's lawful to use deadly force in that event.

01:50Justin testified that his dad had threatened him and tried to take away the 9mm handgun

01:55that he purchased the day before.

01:57He said he believed his father was trying to stop him from becoming a charismatic political leader

02:02like President Donald Trump.

02:04Justin painted his political beliefs as different from his parents,

02:08whom he described as being on the far left.

02:11He also explained that his dad was a martial arts expert with two black belts.

02:16Michael Maughan was a respected civil engineer

02:18who spent 20 years with the Army Corps of Engineers.

02:22But in his seemingly emotionless two-hour testimony,

02:25Justin said,

02:26I would object to calling it a murder,

02:28and claimed that killing his dad was his plan B,

02:32and that he knew his YouTube video would go viral.

02:35His sick video rant indeed spread like wildfire.

02:38In the nearly 15-minute speech,

02:40Justin said he needed to kill his dad

02:42to inspire others to join his movement to overthrow the government.

02:46His tirade spanned everything from immigration and the border

02:49to the war in Ukraine.

02:52True crime aficionados,

02:53including popular YouTuber Ray William Johnson,

02:57have since poured over the grisly details.

02:59In that video, he holds up his dad's head to the camera to show everyone.

03:04And I promise you, whatever you're imagining this scene is,

03:07it's worse.

03:08I've seen the video, and it's f***ing gruesome.

03:11A judge will soon decide the fate of Justin Maughan,

03:14who faces both murder and terrorism charges for the gruesome killing.
