Shocking Video Emerges of Quadruple Amputee Cornhole Star in Murder Case
A startling new video has surfaced featuring Dayton James Webber, the quadruple amputee professional cornhole player charged with murder, appearing to snort a substance and fire a semiautomatic rifle. The footage, obtained by TMZ and posted Thursday morning, adds another layer to the already bizarre case that has captured national attention.
Video Details Show Disturbing Behavior
In the clip recorded in July 2025 in Webber's hometown of La Plata, Maryland, the shirtless defendant is seen performing a handstand against a wall while snorting a substance off a dollar bill held by another person. After reorienting himself, Webber walks toward an open window, picks up a semiautomatic rifle, and fires two shots into the darkness while standing next to what appears to be drug paraphernalia on the ground.
Webber's legal team responded quickly to the video's release, with attorneys Andrew Jezic and David Moyse stating that the footage "changes nothing" for their client. "Dayton is 100% not guilty and did what he had to do to not be killed," they asserted, maintaining their self-defense argument.
Murder Charges and Alleged Motive
Webber faces serious charges including:
- First- and second-degree murder
- Assault charges
- Firearm-related offenses
The charges stem from the March 22 shooting death of 27-year-old Bradrick Michael Wells in southern Maryland. According to court documents obtained by ESPN, Webber allegedly shot Wells while driving his Tesla during what passengers described as a "heated argument" over "drugs, guns and a woman."
Two backseat passengers told police that after the shooting, Webber asked them to help remove Wells' body from the vehicle. When they refused and exited the car, Webber fled with the body, which was later found approximately 16 kilometers away in a yard.
Complex Personal Relationships and Self-Defense Claim
The case involves tangled personal relationships that may have contributed to the fatal confrontation. Tori Mattingly, who told TMZ she dated Wells briefly after spending roughly four years with Webber, may be the woman referenced in the argument, though this remains unconfirmed.
During a recent court appearance where Webber was denied bail, his attorney reiterated the self-defense claim and anticipated "a lengthy trial" to prove it. Webber, who listed his occupation as "self-employed motivational speaker (and professional) cornhole player" with a net income of US$100,000 last year, has yet to enter an official plea. His next court date is scheduled for May 6 for a preliminary hearing.
Public Fascination with Physical Capabilities
News of Webber's arrest went viral last month, with many questioning how a person with no limbs could fire a gun while driving a vehicle. However, videos from 2024 show Webber loading and firing a 9mm handgun without assistance, demonstrating remarkable adaptability. The American Cornhole League has released statements distancing itself from Webber as the case progresses through the legal system.
The emergence of this latest video adds visual evidence to a case that continues to raise questions about disability, criminal capability, and the circumstances surrounding Wells' death.
