The difference is that you knew who shot it and who had put the time into hunt the animal. Much different than shed hunting or finding a random skull. So your story goes, “I found a dead deer someone else shot, decided not to tell him, used the cape for my own benefit and then hung the antlers on my shed, wanna see them”. .... nice story.
Did you happen to tell F&W you knew who shot it when you applied for your permit?
