Any weapons taken off a Forsworn corpse are stolen, certain items taken from bandit chiefs (and sometimes others, but it has consistently been the chiefs), and armor that I craft if I give it to a companion and dismiss them, or put it into storage/drop it, will be stolen if I take it back.
It's an annoyance more than anything else, since I have all the merchants in the Thieves guild I have no lack of money to sell everything.
Has anyone else encountered this bug?
