When a homeless man in Philadelphia gave a stranded couple his last $20 so they could buy gas, they were so inspired that they started an online fund-raiser to help him. But over nine months, more than 14,000 people donated over $400,000 to the man, Johnny Bobbitt Jr.Less inspiring: He says he has yet to see any of the money. And he is filing a lawsuit against the New Jersey couple, Mark D’Amico and Kate McClure. Mr. Bobbitt is still homeless and was panhandling until he checked into rehab. He claims he never saw any of the money.
