Police raided the home Thursday of a New Jersey couple who have been ordered by a judge to appear in court to explain what happened to the $400,000 they raised online for a homeless Good Samaritan.

Footage taken from the scene showed a shiny, black BMW car being towed away from the Bordentown property owned by Katie McClure and Mark D’Amico. Other videos showed D’Amico hitting golf balls off the lawn surrounding the home and ABC6 reported bags of items being loaded into a law enforcement vehicle.

Burlington County said a "search warrant was executed early this morning by the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office and the Florence Township Police Department at the residence of D'Amico and McClure in connection with a criminal investigation into the Johnny Bobbitt matter."

3. Pretty shameful what they apparently did.

I told my husband just the other day that this may have a negative impact on other GoFundMe projects that are on the up and up. Too bad.

4. It should. If we don't want GoFundMe to be devalued ...

as a tool for social good, we need to question and filter.

7. They're cooked. The prosecutor is going to eat them alive and use this high profile

case to make a name for himself that will lead to fluffier employment offers. He'll stack up the criminal charges against these two morons and they'll never recover. Maybe the public interest will spill over to homeless vet and he will get something out of it all that will help him.

No money for gas and then runs out and buys a new BMW.
