<<9mm is .35 inches.....how much tolerance is there is in bullets...??? Would a 9mm at close range exit a head..? If not wouldn't you expect to see the slug or most of the fragments? >>

A 9mm could leave several sizes of holes depending on several factors. Velocity and type of bullet for two. Like I said a gun doesn't have to shoot lead. You also have the possibility it went out an eyehole.

I was a medic in 69 and 70 and have seen what bullets can do. I also have a friend who was a mercenary in Afghanistan during the Russian deal. He did some tests on being shot in the head and often the ENTRY hole was larger than the exit hole due to the brains being forced open and slamming back shut blowing out of the entry hole.
