Um, no.
Even if it happened to work in this case, do you REALLY think it's a valid defense plan to use ammo hoping that if you don't get a good shot, one of the fragments will travel and perforate a major blood vessel? That's the plan? In a world where bizarre things can and will happen, this one is pretty bizarre. This is like saying you won't wear your seatbelt because you know a guy who jumped out of his car before it went off a cliff, and if he had been wearing his seatbelt, he wouldn't have been able to. Doesn't mean seatbelts aren't the best plan.
I once watched a .22 enter below my friend's ribcage in front, exit out his back, and walked out of the ER with two stitches and a bandaid. The bullet skimmed the outside of the chest cavity and exited. Doesn't mean I plan on it happening again.
