Bounty despite the only witness being dead

So I did my first neutral NPC kill today and to my dismay I found that I kept the bounty despite the only witness, the target themselves, being dead.
That seems to be rather illogical as well as a backwards step from what already had been a game mechanic in (an)other TES title(s).
Why is that?
This one does not appreciate txt tlk, elitism and foul language.

    I agree too. There shouldn't be a bounty if the only witnesses were killed. But maybe there is an underlying game mechanic which prohibits them from implenting it?

    The victim's yelling/screaming/whatever attracted attention, turned it from visually witnessing, to audially witnessing.

    Did you leave behind any hair? Maybe some DNA inside a glove left - not at the scene, but down the block in a trash can?

    Couldn't agree more, this is purely idiotic if there aren't any more witnesses.

    Yes I agree killing the witness should erase your bounty!

    Here is one to ponder and gave me a good laugh. I was in the middle of the Alik'r Desert and came upon an NPC who had a goat with him. There were no other NPC's around only him and his goat. I killed the NPC with the Blade of Woe. His goat turned red (hostile) and all of a sudden I had a bounty. The goat turned me in. So the lesson to this true story is do not kill a NPC who has an animal with him for you will be turned in by that animal. In the case of the goat ZOS created a super smart one.

    Well ya know Tamriel is full of cats and lizards walking and talking (and murdering) so it kinda makes sense that goats and chickens can turn you in :lol:

    Drama fish? they look similar to slaughter fish but the only slaughter they bring is to your social circle

    The goat was actually a shape changed Aedra.

    Chickens are spies in polymorph indeed and are not meant to be taken lightly. So, be cautious.
