This all began in late 2017 when McClure and her then-boyfriend Mark D'Amico started a GoFundMe for homeless veteran Johnny Bobbitt, claiming Bobbitt gave McClure his last $20 when she ran out of gas.The truth emerged after Bobbitt sued the couple, accusing them of keeping the money for themselves.Still, the couple spent large chunks of the money in a matter of months on lavish casino trips and a BMW.
McClure's attorney previously said she was in an abusive relationship and called D'Amico a "master manipulator."
