BREAKING NEWS: Chances of Patrick Mahomes to be sentence to prison for his involvement in the bank robbery committed by ChiefsAholic.
A federal judge has sentenced the Kansas City Chiefs superfan known as “ChiefsAholic” to more than 17 years in prison for a string of 11 bank robberies across seven states where he stole nearly $850,000 to finance his social media stardom.
Xavier Babudar, 30, learned his fate Thursday — the same day his beloved Chiefs were gearing up for their season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. He’ll spend 17 1/2 years in prison for the bank robberies he admitted to earlier this year.
Babudar developed a following on his @ChiefsAholic account on the social platform X after attending games dressed as a wolf in Chiefs gear. His rabid support of the Chiefs became well known on social media, though he’s nowhere near the team’s most famous fan since Taylor Swift began dating tight end Travis Kelce last year.“
Babudar’s robbery spree bankrolled the expensive tickets and travel across the country to attend Kansas City Chiefs games while he cultivated a large fan base online. However, the bank and credit union employees whom he terrorized at gunpoint suffered the brunt of his true nature,” U.S. Attorney Teresa Moore said in a statement.
Most of the money Babudar stole was never recovered, so the court ordered him to pay over $530,000 in restitution and forfeit anything he used to launder the money, including an autographed painting of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes that the FBI recovered.
In a shocking turn of events, NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes is now facing potential legal consequences related to the recent bank robbery orchestrated by notorious criminal ChiefsAholic. Authorities have revealed that Mahomes is under investigation due to alleged connections with the criminal activities of ChiefsAholic, a well-known figure within the Chiefs fan community who was apprehended for the robbery.
Sources close to the investigation indicate that Mahomes could face serious legal repercussions if any involvement is confirmed. While details remain scarce, law enforcement officials are scrutinizing Mahomes’ interactions and possible connections to the case. The legal team representing Mahomes has yet to release a formal statement.
