Actually, this is really intelligently done. Go replay the scene.

Spoiler:
You LOSE CONTROL and sight of Shelby when the camera cuts away to show the close up of the ballerina. The player assumes this is a reminder to wipe away the woman's fingerprints, but it's actually to cover up Shelby's killing.

What makes a lot less sense is that he's simply allowed to walk right out of the police station if you don't wipe away all the fingerprints.
