I’m unclear what the definition of “security guard” is these days. Just....what?
This just happened at the @Walgreens on Gough & Fell Streets in San Francisco. #NoConsequences @chesaboudinpic.twitter.com/uSbnTQQk4J

If the security guard were to be injured while engaging the suspect, the payout for that employee could be vastly more than the value of the stolen items. In these situations they are told to sit back and watch, lest they be fired.

Observe and report.... they tell you that in training
. Don’t get beat up or killed over things that are insured. -
Sure, although at some point the insurance company is gonna stop covering you. When I worked in retail, decades ago, theft was just “shrinkage” and typically wasn’t insured, only property damage or customer injury was covered.

The question is why wasn’t this openly happening in 2016-20 to the point that Walgreens is closing stores?

How long before someone takes justice into their own hands?

Stealing from billion dollar corporations is the closest thing to justice you can find in America.

Why does security stand there and watch it happen?
-
Because his training is to follow Walgreens corporate policy, which is not to confront and physically detain shop lifters. He is there to Observe and Report.
