There ought to be some consequences for knowingly putting and leaving people in a place where they are likely to be raped and murdered. Contracting adequate (local or foreign) private security is not the only way to resolve a situation like this. You could also remove the people.

That's what the government is for. Either let the corporation be wholly responsible for safety (including things like surveillance, risk analysis, prevention etc), or don't complain about the corporation not doing it when there is a government saying they have it covered. Why are you not angry at the government for not stopping this foreseeable crime?

So every coma y in New York City should be liable for any crimes committed against their employees on the streets of NYC?

What ever happened to prosecuting perpetrators instead of bystanders? What ever happened to the responsibility of government to prevent crimes?
