MT. HOLLY, New Jersey –
The Burlington County Prosecutor's Office has announced it will announce new developments in the GoFundMe box Thursday afternoon.
Prosecutor Scott Coffina said no information will be released prior to the 2 p.m. announcement.
Last year, in New Jersey couple started the GoFundMe account for Johnny Bobbitt who spent $ 20 to buy gas for the woman after being stranded along I-95.
However, Bobbitt says the bulk of the money did not go to him, but rather was spent by Kate McClure and Mark D'Amico. The couple denied any wrongdoing in the matter.
The total amount raised would be $ 360,000 after GoFundMe's fees. Bobbitt said it was about $ 75,000 in cash, goods and services, and claims the couple took care of the lavish vacations and made expensive purchases with the rest.
The couple claimed through their attorney they gave Bobbitt $ 200,000.
A search warrant was executed at the Bordentown, New Jersey home of McClure and D'Amico, and a judge ordered the pair to appear in court.
A civilian case involving funds raised for Bobbitt through the GoFundMe was put on hold of the company promised to make good on any missing funds.
However, the prosecutor's office announced the controversy was far from over the criminal investigation would continue.
