Apparently, It Was A Common Storage Space
After finding such a valuable amount of cash stashed at the back of the TV, many wondered if this was a normal occurrence. According to Constable Rodgers, “These big box TVs from the 1980s have lots of space in the back. So you just unscrew the back, take the casing off and there’s lots of space.” She continues, “I don’t think it was an uncommon thing to put valuables in the back of a TV back then.”
