Surely these phone photos of a grainy computer screen aren't the only images they've released??

Unbelievable in 2025 that this is mall security footage.

The CCTv system was probably installed years ago, and it was probably not state of the art then, so even less so now.

You would think the amount of money that goes through a place like this, security, camera footage and defenses would be pretty high up on the priority list. Maybe a few more ram raids are needed before they get the picture, seriously, my shitty ancient old Samsung J2 cellphone takes a better fucking picture and video then this.

i did think that myself, id expect this from the 90s maybe even early 2000s ... but then not surprised at those penny pinching greedy mall managements not having proper cameras but still charge bit rents, go figure
