Brass can usually be tied to the specific gun that fired it, and always to the make of the gun that fired it. Even with almost not space between the muzzle and the skull, there is going to be a LOT of back spatter of blood, brain, and bone. Heads do not go lightly unto this good night... You'll need some sort of 'shield' to keep the shooter from getting spattered upon. Should your victim be wearing a sports jacket, quickly raising the tail up to the base of the head and firing through it would work. Just don't leave epithelials from her hand on the fabric.
A .25 caliber round carries a LOT more powder than a .22, and thus usually much louder. However, if she had pulled the slug, dumped most of the powder, and re-seated the slug (not a very difficult task) that would eliminate much of the noise and still provide enough penetration.
