On February 6, 1865, a devastating burglary took place at the Walker jewelry store in Cornhill, London, England. About 850,000 pounds of property were looted by thieves. This is the famous case of the historic Cornhill safe theft.
In the 12 months before this, theft of local safes took place one after another. First the safe of Thomas Mckeown, a gold and silver dealer on Fenchurch Street, was opened with a cooker and a master key. Johnson, a jeweller on Threadneedle Street, suffered the same fate. Then a gold and silver dealer, Baum, on Lombard Street, and Abrahams, Strand Street. The safe was also opened.
After the escalation of the Cornhill Extraordinary Vault, it was all over the city. Vault manufacturers have been widely condemned and the safe is "useless". Later, the related thieves were arrested and sent to court for trial. The chief offender, Thomas Caseley, was sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment. However, it was a hard blow to the safe-dealers that the thief Thomas Caseley was in the trial and claimed that he could open the anti-theft safe with wedges and levers within 35 minutes and even open the anti-theft insurance in 15 minutes without interference. cabinet. Public opinion is even more frightened by this. They have alleged that the safest name that was known at the time was not true.
