ChiefsAholic Gets 32 Years for Oklahoma Bank Robbery

News summary

Kansas City Chiefs superfan Xaviar Babudar, known as 'ChiefsAholic,' was sentenced to 32 years in Oklahoma state prison for the armed robbery of the Tulsa Teachers Credit Union in Bixby in December 2022. During the robbery, Babudar, dressed as the Chiefs' wolf mascot, used a BB gun to threaten employees and escaped with $150,000 before being captured after fleeing bond and removing his ankle monitor. He pleaded guilty to robbery with a firearm, assault while masked, and removing an electronic monitoring device. Babudar is already serving a 17.5-year federal sentence for a spree of 11 bank robberies in seven states, with his Oklahoma sentence running concurrently, resulting in an additional 14.5 years after his federal term. Authorities said he traumatized numerous victims and used over $800,000 from the robberies to fund his travel and gambling. Prosecutors sought a life sentence due to the severity of his crimes, while the defense cited Babudar's troubled background and gambling addiction.
