It didn't make sense at first that modern bullets would be not powerful enough to kill two people.

But as you describe, yes if the bullet is meant to do as much damage as possible to one person, then the energy would be focused upon that injury.

Yes I think there is going to be a series of mistakes when the evidence comes in.

Thank you for the information.
