Why didnt they take out the bullet out?
They dont need to take the bullet out in many cases. Doctors will evaluate if it is safe to remove the bullet or not. It is not unusual to hear a bullet lodged in to a skull or spinal cord to be left in the body. Due to friction between the bullet and barrel plus the atmosphere by the time bullet reaches the body its already too hot and perfectly sterilised. There is no risk of infection from the bullet. Lead poisoning can only happen when there is oxidation. As oxigen can not reach the lead in the body it is safe to leave it in rather than causing more damage to the body trying to take it out.
