I’m sorry to hear about your experience, but have you considered that this was a reasonable outcome of a cost-benefit analysis? It’s a time-consuming and costly process to collect, review and pursue CCTV evidence. If you’re the victim of a relatively minor property crime (e.g. having your phone or laptop stolen) it’s probably not worth the police pursuing it. If, on the other hand, you are the victim of serious violent crime (murder, attempted murder, rape, assault, etc.), the police most certainly do trawl the area for cameras, request footage, review and identify suspects, issue appeals, etc.
