Guard Confiscated a crafted item?

Are guards able to confiscate non stolen items now? I accidentally stole some white boots off a table and got a bounty. Guards got me shortly after and I paid the bounty and the guard confiscated the white stole boots but also took an epic crafted shield I had?!?!? Is this a bug or did I miss a change somewhere with how the justice system works?

Drammanoth✭✭✭✭✭'crafted' cannot be 'stolen'. You cannot reverse-pickpocket an item, as it was in Skyrim.1 -
JavaRen✭✭✭✭✭Looks like some illegal search and seizure to me, best call your lawyer. And file a bug report.7

I crafted an iron dagger using stolen Obsidian, and the guard did not confiscate it. I haven't yet been able to find and steal any base materials.Edited by Deserrick on December 29, 2023 11:44PM0 -

Now I'm imagining an Argonian guard with their scaly, clawed hands reaching into your mouth down your throat and pulling out a half eaten roast chicken and you lose your stat buff... WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH IT?? Argonian eats your half-digested meal while staring you dead in the eyes, unblinking.8 -

ZOS_HadeostrymodGreetings,
After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's asking the community for assistance.
Thank you for your understanding1 -

✭✭✭✭✭A guard NPC took a non-stolen item from the player, that's more like a bug.Edited by phaneub17_ESO on December 30, 2023 5:10AM5 -

✭✭✭✭✭There is a bug with some UI add-ons that shows items being confiscated by guards that you have somehow removed from your inventory. For example, one Jester’s event I put a Dubious Camoran Throne recipe in my bank. Then I was caught by the guard while stealing the apples for the quest. The add-on said the guard confiscated my DCT recipe because it inaccurately concluded that the recipe was confiscated based on the fact it was no longer in my inventory after the guard took the stolen apples. The recipe was not confiscated at all. The add-on was incorrect.Edited by virtus753 on January 6, 2024 4:32PM2
