This Prompts the dock worker to go to Ronnie Kray for protection, who, for a sum on 2,000 pounds, agrees to have Cornell Killed.

Death
That Day, Cornell was approached by Ronnie Kray, to whom he mockingly said "well look what the cat dragged in". Ronnie pulled out a 9mm Luger and shot him once in the forehead, just above the eye.

Although Cornell was dead, his death was enough to charge Ronnie Kray for Murder.
