It was early morning, about 6 a.m., on November 13, 1536, when Robert Pakington, a London merchant, was fatally shot while on his way to attend early Mass. It was the first recorded firearm crime in London's history, and a crime that has never been solved -- though there are some theories to talk about, even this long time later.
