Because those statements might not protect against a really good tort lawyer?

And having a video that says "Look! It's easy to steal from our property!" would?

Because you want to make your parking garage safe for the little old ladies walking to their cars?

Camera's don't make a property that much safer. They just give the police something to work with after the crime is done.

I agree with your points entirely.

It’s just hard to believe that there still exist pockets of unsurveilled public access property anymore.

I’m going to make 2 bets here:

1. there was video of the parking lot.

2. that video no longer exists and the theft was an inside job by an employee or one of their buddies.
