I know there is a major blood vessel in the upper thigh area but not the knee. I’m sort of wondering how one dies from a knee shot?!

It doesn’t say where she actually hit the perp. Maybe in the heart. Perhaps she was taught to aim there by someone who was familiar with her shooting.

A blood clot (timy bone fragment from bullet smashing bones in the knee perhaps) rushing to the lungs results in a pulmonary embolism and a person dies pretty quickly. That’s one way. There is also an artery running behind the knee toward the ankle.

Story sounds like the perp died of shock because of blood loss.

During the Battle of Shiloh during the Civil War, Comfederate General Albert Johnston was struck in the back of the knee by a spent bullet, which only partially penetrated. It severed a vital artery and Johnston bled to death before anyone realized he’d been injured.

goes on the inside and loops behind the knee... cut it, keep bleeding without a tourniquet and 5 minutes later = room temperature for you.
