A viral video has emerged showing quadruple amputee professional cornhole player Dayton Webber, 27, snorting an unknown substance through a rolled-up dollar bill and firing a rifle out of a window months before he allegedly shot and killed his friend Bradrick Michael Wells, 27, while Wells was riding in the passenger seat of Webber's vehicle.

Why it matters

The video raises serious questions about Webber's mental state and potential substance abuse issues, which may have contributed to the alleged murder. It also highlights the challenges of monitoring and regulating the behavior of high-profile athletes, especially those with disabilities, who may face unique pressures and temptations.

The details

In the video, Webber is seen standing on his head and snorting something through a rolled-up dollar bill before picking up a rifle and firing it out an open window. Months later, police say Webber shot Wells while he was a passenger in Webber's vehicle, then asked two other passengers to help remove Wells' body, which they refused to do. Webber then allegedly drove off with Wells' body still in the car.

  • The viral video showing Webber's drug use and gun firing was recorded several months before the alleged murder.
  • The alleged murder of Bradrick Michael Wells occurred on April 5, 2026.
