  A quantum magnetic impurity of spin $S$ at the edge of a two-dimensional time
reversal invariant topological insulator may give rise to backscattering. We
study here the shot noise associated with the backscattering current for
arbitrary $S$. Our full analytical solution reveals that for $S>\frac{1}{2}$
the Fano factor may be arbitrarily large, reflecting bunching of large batches
of electrons. By contrast, we rigorously prove that for $S=\frac{1}{2}$ the
Fano factor is bounded between $1$ and $2$, generalizing earlier studies.
