Memory Lane could have had a California-based employee drive the package to the hotel by Sherman tank or armed convoy, and still, once hotel management was asked to store the package in a secure room, it could/would have been stolen just the same.
If your summary is true, it was a mistake to trust the management of a Best Western to hold secure millions of dollars worth of anything. You don’t think so?

This hotel is a Best Western, not a Middle of the Road Western, Fair to Middling Western, or Just Passable Western hotel, so they should be expected to anticipate and securely warehouse millions of dollars worth of cardboard and plastic, even if hotel management was not notified.
