This woman was shot in the face at close range with a bullet from a 30.06 rifle in a homicide. No further info.
In the case of a high-powered firearm, the amount of force generated by the blast is so large that a shot fired with the weapon in contact with the head causes extensive destruction. Head injuries from shotguns and high-powered rifles are typically quite devastating, often with extensive soft tissue destruction, skull fractures, and pulpifaction of the brain. Occasionally, the brain is largely expelled from the cranial vault and may be found near the body.
