You're right, but they used the photo as evidence to convict someone. They couldn't get a match on a national database, but it's possible that they could tell which of the 3 held the bag.
There's another story to this too, I bet someone is developing a tool right now to scan fingerprints from youtube videos and photos. Maybe they can also plant them. The idea itself opens a new array of possibilities.

If you had good data on someone's fingerprints I imagine it's inevitable that at some point you could do the same to put their fingerprints onto a photo of a hand.
