A huge Kansas City Chiefs fan will spend more than 17 years behind bars for his role in a series of bank robberies across multiple states.

Xaviar Michael Babudar, 30, known for his online personality “ChiefsAholic,” was sentenced to 210 months in prison without parole in federal court in Kansas City on Thursday morning. According to federal court documents, the sentence is 17.5 years.

After his conviction, Babudar faces three years of probation, according to sentencing documents. The judge also ordered him to pay more than $500,000 in restitution.

He was also ordered to forfeit “all assets related to his money laundering activities,” according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Missouri, including a signed painting of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Babudar was charged with a series of 11 robberies or attempted robberies in seven states in which he stole nearly $850,000, prosecutors said.

He pleaded guilty in February to one count of money laundering and one count of transporting stolen property across state lines, as well as one count of bank robbery in another Oklahoma case, prosecutors said. He was also sentenced to 17 1/2 years in prison in the Oklahoma case and will serve both sentences concurrently.

He also admitted to a series of nine bank and credit union robberies in 2022 and two more while on the run, prosecutors said.

“While posing as a celebrity on social media, the defendant secretly committed a series of armed robberies and attempted robberies in seven states,” U.S. Attorney Teresa Moore said in the statement.

She said his “spree of robberies financed expensive tickets and cross-country travel to Kansas City Chiefs games while he built a large online following.”

“However, the bank and credit union employees he terrorized at gunpoint felt the brunt of his true nature,” Moore said. “He attempted to evade justice, but was caught up by law enforcement and will now spend a significant portion of his life in prison.”

Matthew Merryman, a lawyer for Babudar, said Thursday they had “achieved a fair and just result” in court.

“The sentence imposed reflects our unwavering commitment to reducing and mitigating the numerous charges and the decades-long prison sentence he faces,” Merryman said in a statement.

“Xaviar would like to thank his followers and fans from the bottom of his heart and assure everyone that this is not the last chapter,” Merryman added. “He promises to ‘cry’ again!!!”

Babudar was first arrested in December 2022 in connection with a robbery at the Tulsa Teachers Federal Credit Union in Oklahoma.

He was released from prison in February 2023 and removed his ankle bracelet the following month, and was on the run until authorities found him in July, when he was involved in a series of other bank robberies, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Western District of Missouri said.

In July 2023, he was arrested again and accused of committing a series of robberies at banks and credit unions in the Midwest before laundering his earnings at casinos in the Kansas City area and depositing the proceeds into various bank accounts, the office said.

In April, Babudar was also ordered to pay $10.8 million to a bank employee who said he attacked her with a gun during the December 2022 robbery in Oklahoma.

The judge recommended that Babudar serve his sentence at FCI Greenville, a medium-security prison in Greenville, Illinois.
