Security cameras in stores are kept purposely garbage so they don't get bugged by the police to provide footage to them. Unless something changed in the last decade since I worked in a retail joint.

I can tell you from personal experience that there exists a very happy corporate servant who is happy to give footage to police. The security cameras in some stores are shit because the owner is cheap (this is the case with most gas stations).
