why? because your shrimp died and the only thing that prevented it from polluting your tank was a large bristle worm?

Bristle worms are slow, and they do not attack and kill shrimps. At least any healthy shrimp would get away from it easily and shrimps are active at night as well so they will not be taken by surprise when sleeping.

Check out your level of iodine because that shrimp might have died because it was unable to molt. Adding Lugol to the tank on regular basis will help.
