Saed News: For years, a valuable treasure has been buried in a gold ship, and only one person knows its exact location, who unfortunately refuses to reveal it. What is the story behind this?
According to Saad News' incident report, quoting Faradeed, it was in the mid-19th century when the SS Central America ship set off from California to dock in New York. However, it sank halfway for unknown reasons, creating many controversies that continued into the 21st century. According to foreign media, the ship was carrying 21 tons of gold, which is buried deep in the sea, and only one person knows its exact location. This individual is stubbornly refusing to reveal the location of the valuable treasure.
According to the latest archaeological news, the treasure hunter who knows the exact location of the treasure was sentenced to 10 years in prison for not cooperating with the U.S. police and refusing to disclose the treasure's location. During this time, he has never spoken about the great treasure, and interestingly, for each day of imprisonment, he has been fined $1,000. As a result, he now has a massive debt to the government.
Currently, the judge handling this case has concluded that imprisoning this 72-year-old man won’t resolve anything, and as a result, he may be released soon. According to reliable sources, there are about 21 tons of gold aboard the gold ship, which was supposed to be deposited in New York's banks, but unfortunately, that never happened.
Imagine how tempting this valuable treasure could be for treasure hunters, motivating them to dig and explore the depths of the sea. To this day, no one has been able to uncover the valuable cargo of the gold ship, and all attempts to locate the treasure have been unsuccessful. Many years after this event, a scientist named Thompson Gregory, along with a team of treasure hunters, ventured into the sea and used sonar technology to scan the ocean floor, uncovering a portion of the ship's gold worth $2.5 million.
Thompson has been in prison since 2015 for not revealing the location of 500 gold coins worth $2.5 million and has not spoken about the great treasure. Over the years, his fine has reached $3.335 million, which is far more than the estimated value of the 500 gold coins.
One of the U.S. court judges has recently been persuaded that Thompson should face criminal charges, and he is likely to be released from prison after serving a 2-year sentence. The only thing Thompson said a long time ago was that the coins were entrusted to a trust in Belize, located in Central America. The judge believes that the longer the defendant remains in prison, the less likely he is to cooperate with the authorities.
