The shocking arrest of quadruple amputee and pro cornhole player Dayton Webber on a charge of murder came as no surprise to one of his ex-girlfriends.
Webber, 27, was arrested after allegedly shooting and killing his passenger, 27-year-old Bradrick Michael Wells, while in his Tesla SUV in La Plata, Maryland last Sunday.
Police believe he fled the scene with Wells still in the car, before the latter’s body was eventually found in a Charlotte Hall yard. The cornhole star was apprehended by cops at a hospital in Virginia and is now facing first and second-degree murder charges.
Given he has no arms or legs – after suffering a blood infection which led to sepsis as a baby – the chilling accusations against Webber sparked both disbelief and confusion.
Yet according to former girlfriend Tori Mattingly, Webber has an ‘angry dark side’ that many people are unaware of.
Mattingly told TMZ that the pair were initially friends before they dated for four years until they split in February 2025. After their relationship ended, she also became romantically involved with Wells.

She claims that Webber would often ‘lash out’ during his furious outbursts when they were together, but he refused to seek help after she urged him to go to therapy over his anger issues.
They went their separate ways in February of last year because he wasn’t prepared to change his ways, Mattingly explained.
Webber’s ex also shared a video with TMZ which shows him screaming at her for not letting him use her car.
‘I asked you to get off my property!’ he is heard shouting repeatedly in the clip.
As a result, Mattingly says she ‘isn’t surprised’ by the murder allegations against Webber.
She also took aim at those sympathizing with her former partner in an emotional post on Facebook, writing: ‘Watching people say “this doesn’t sound like him” or “he would never do that” is honestly sickening. You didn’t live with him. I did.
‘For four years, I saw the side of him that nobody else wanted to believe existed. The anger. The control. The abuse. The kind of darkness you don’t just “mistake.” The kind that makes you feel unsafe in your own home, in your own skin.
‘So no… I’m not shocked he’s being convicted of murder. Because I know what he’s capable of. I lived it. Every single day.’

The Daily Mail revealed earlier this week that Webber allegedly shot Wells twice in the head before asking witnesses to help dump the body.
He has now been formally charged with first and second degree murder, with prosecutors saying he acted ‘feloniously, willfully and with deliberately premeditated malice.’
Webber also faces a firearms charge for the alleged use of a gun in a felony.
Shocking charging documents obtained by the Daily Mail reveal new details of the fatal confrontation that took place in La Plata on Sunday.
According to the statement of charges filed by Detective Mark Bigelow of Charles County Sheriff’s Office, Webber collected two witnesses from their work into the back seat of his white Tesla, where Wells was already in the passenger seat.
But as they were driving, a ‘heated argument’ erupted between Webber and Wells.
‘During the argument, Webber pulled a gun out and shot the victim twice in the head,’ the detective added.
According to charging documents obtained by the Daily Mail, Bradrick Michael Wells’s body was found in a yard on Newport Church Road, Charlotte Hall, Maryland
Webber then pulled over the vehicle and asked his two passengers – identified in the statement as ‘W1’ and ‘W2’ – to help ‘pull Wells out the vehicle, which they refused.’
The two then fled from the vehicle and Webber drove off with Wells still in his car.
Wells’s body was later found in a yard on Newport Church Road in Charlotte Hall, Maryland.
Webber was tracked to a hospital in Charlottesville, Virginia, and is now awaiting extradition to Charles County, Maryland.
