The Proceedings of the Old Bailey, London 1674 to 1834
I've been sent this site by a couple of people (Barbara Dixon and Allan Gingell to name but a few).
As the site says, "A fully searchable online edition of the largest body of texts detailing the lives of non-elite people ever published, containing accounts of over 100,000 criminal trials held at London's central criminal court."
There are a number of Gingell references, the most notable being Mary Gingell -
MARY GINGELL was indicted for stealing, on the 15th of June 1822, at St. Pancras, in the dwelling-house of John Prouse , two sovereigns, and two 5 l. Bank-notes , his property.
Prisoner's Defence. I never saw the money.
GUILTY - DEATH . Aged 23.
Second Middlesex Jury, before Mr. Justice Best.

Does anyone know who this Mary Gingell might be?
