Just did that same thing, except I didn't have Lydia with me, and I had to take out Jala myself. I think that was because she's the wife of the executioner, Ahtar. Otherwise she's the last witness to your dirty deed and when she goes down you end up without a 1000 septim bounty. Although afterwards, I just reloaded my game anyway, it was a good try though.
Something for Bethesda to try and add in next time, a "save the guy" mission.
