📋 About This Mod
Bethesda for some reason never flagged animals and such to ignore crimes. Welp, now they will. No longer will a wild goat tell the guards what you've done. No longer will horses snitch. No longer will dragons report to the guards because you murdered someone/something they were planning to murder. :D
Requirements: Updated Skyrim Dawnguard DLC Dragonborn DLC
