The cameras in the hallway were to make sure he would be able to finish it his own way, per the plan. He sent the girlfriend out of the country so she wouldn't have a chance to catch on. He wired the money because he knew he had no more need for it; I suspect it's sitting in a pick-up account somewhere with a password that's supposed to be discovered by a relative via some reliable mechanism in the future. This is literally the guy who thought of everything, at the far end of the "organized" end of the criminal spectrum.
