"I recall a lawsuit against a Walmart in Tyler TX because an employee was abducted from the parking lot after work and murdered. I am pretty sure Walmart settled. So, there does appear to be some merit to the idea that you could sue them if you were attacked inside their store."

I don't know of any lawsuit. Ms Holden was abducted in the parking lot, as she went to her car. There's no grounds to sue wally world for the criminal acts of others. MS Holden was essentially carjacked.

There was a lawsuit, and I'm pretty sure they settled and the family was not allowed to discuss it. I may be mistaken, it's been awhile, but I followed the case since Megan was a former student of mine.
