Public Enemy bug

So I've been trying to accomplish one of my sims aspirations, that being witness the death of a sim. No matter what I do the aspiration doesn't get checked, my sim is right there watching when it happens even telling me my sim is witnessing it but it doesn't register.

The only DLC installed is Dine-Out and the holiday pack and I doubt those are somehow causing issues. I've heard that this bug is a on-going issue that still hasn't been fixed so any help or advice would be appreciated.
