We reported earlier in the week about the feel-good story that didn’t turn out to be so feel good. A homeless man gave a woman his last $20 when she ran out of gas. The story went viral and she started a gofundme for him.
It raised over $400k but instead of giving the man his money, she and her boyfriend went on a shopping spree.
Now, a judge is setting things straight.
A judge ordered a New Jersey couple Thursday to give a homeless Philadelphia man whatever’s left of the $400,000 they raised for him.
Katie McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D’Amico, were told by the Burlington, New Jersey, judge to turn over the remaining money they raised through a GoFundMe campaign for Johnny Bobbitt, according to NBC Philadelphia.
The judge also demanded that McClure and D’Amico provide a full accounting of each dollar they collected, the station reported.
Bobbitt inspired the fundraising campaign after he gave McClure his last $20 when she ran out of gas on a freeway exit ramp last November outside Philadelphia.
If they find any shady business they should be arrested.
