Stolen from storage area

[Jeff Miller]

I believe that a bailment has more to do with who and how it is
accessed. If you put your own lock on a door, the property owners
have no access and therefore it is not a bailment (or so is my best
recollection from a feeble attempt at a law degree decades ago).
