BREAKING NEWSKansas City Chiefs superfan Xaviar Babudar sentenced to 32 years in jail for bank robbery rampage

The infamous Kansas City Chiefs superfan known as ‘ChiefsAholic’ has been sentenced to 32 years in prison for a brazen bank robbery rampage across seven US states.

Xaviar Babudar, 30, who was often seen in a wolf costume at Chiefs games across America, had already been sentenced to 17-and-a-half years of jail time without parole last September.

But the Tulsa County district attorney’s office sought a longer sentence and he was today sentenced in an Oklahoma courtroom to 32 years behind bars.

At the start of last year, Babudar pled guilty to charges of money laundering, transporting stolen property across state lines, and bank robbery back in February.

He was charged with robbing banks in seven states from 2022 to 2023, which his attorney says was fueled by a gambling addiction and troubled childhood that left him homeless. 

Tulsa County district attorney Steve Kunzweiler said of the initial sentence: ‘It was offensive to me that a serial robber could victimize as many hard-working Americans as this guy did all across the country and only receive 17½ years from the federal government.

‘My preference was for him to serve the rest of his life in prison. He caught another break today, but at least he’s going to be serving some additional time, and my thoughts are with the victims who continue to be tormented by his violence.’

Babudar’s attorneys, meanwhile, expressed relief, noting: ‘[The prosecution] wanted him to die in prison.

‘Our entire position from the beginning is that we want to live in a world where everybody’s treated equally, not based on notoriety or social media presence.’ 

As a part of his plea agreement at the original sentencing last September, Babudar will have to pay over $530,000 in resтιтution to the victims’ financial insтιтution.

Adding insult to injury, he will also have to forfeit an autographed painting of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Back in November 2023, Babudar pled not guilty to robbing a Tulsa Teachers Credit union branch in Bixby, Oklahoma. He was accused of pointing a pistol at a bank teller and leaving with $150k in December 2022.

He was arrested that month and was held in jail until February 2023 when he was released on bond.

Babudar then cut his ankle monitor and went on the run for four months before being caught by the FBI in California. 

Officials were able to link him back to several other unsolved robberies in Nebraska, Iowa, Tennessee, and Oklahoma.

In Iowa, specifically, Babudar was accused of stealing $70,000 from the Great Western Bank in Clive.
