were you in an anarchy?
Dont get a bounty for shooting in anarchy's.
happened to me too a couple hours ago
I saw player interdicting another player and jumped in after them
I scanned the already wanted player with a Warrent scanner and checked the bounty, which was on 30,000
I then attacked the wanted player, getting a fine and destroyed him, giving myself a bounty
However I interdicted another player a little later and followed the same steps but didn't get a fine so it seems pretty random

Yes. Report crimes was off.
I was in a federal system. I do have unfriendly status with the feds unfortunately, but strangely enough I got a rep increase after the kill. Go figure.
I believe that it is still a crime in, say, Fed space to shoot someone who is not wanted in Fed space, even if they have a bounty that you have found through the KWS in another jurisdiction.
But I should still get fined for fighting back right? Guy attacks me, I retaliate, he reports my "crimes" and I get screwed. Yeah no bug at all.
He attacked you, but you didn't report it => no crime => clean. You attacked a clean ship => crime. Not a bug. This has been verified by Sandro, incidentally.
I guess my problem is not with the wanted status per se, but with the retaliation mechanic. Reporting crimes option I turn off while bounty hunting to not get federal ships in my way while I'm blasting away. Whatever it was set, my retaliating should not be considered a crime.
The problem is that I was attacked and somehow I ended up being the criminal. It's pretty easy to grasp IRL: Somebody attacks you, you have to call 911 and report it while you're getting your face beat in before you can defend yourself. That's why it doesn't make any sense. If this is by design then that's really poor design.
