I posted on the forum about this, and a solution was suggested. I know 
this worked before the 1.02 patch, although last time I looked I think 
it wasn't working. Anyway, it's worth a try:

Make the following settings in your serversettings.con:

game.ServerFreeCamera 1
game.freecamerabasespeed 0
game.freecameraslowspeed 0
game.freecamerafastspeed 0

When you die, you get free camera (and so the killer is not identified). 
Since the speed is set to 0, you can't move to look around.

I'm interested to know if this still works. I haven't had time to test 
it lately.
