Not once, not ever, did a round "explode"
Fizzle?, pop? sure, "Explode" ? NO, not once.

While Im sure ANYthing is possible, I find it very difficult to believe a round heated with a lighter would cause the bullet to be projected with enough force to penetrate the human scull and said bullitt lodge behind the eye.

Strange, unlikely, uncommon things happen and perhaps this is one of them. But I hope the detectives investigating take a good look at all evidence and determine exactly what happened.
This ^^^. There's more to this story
Honestly I dont think I read enough to say there IS more, Im just saying i read enough to say it should be looked at..HARD.
I suppose the why does not matter unless there was a malicious intent on party(s) that was the proximate cause of this injury.
