Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

A tenant in my HOA is pursuing a claim against our insurance because she was burgerlized while work was being done on the building and the front security door was propped open. She is claiming this caused the burglery since the Association acts as a landlord in this respect. She has no renter's insurance. We are no sure yet if the owner has property insurance though this is required in the CC&Rs. Does she have a case? What recourse do we as the Board have? She is claiming she lost a $22K engagement ring yet it wasn't insured. Doesn't add up to me?
