Time's A-Wastin': Xaviar Michael Babudar's Unwanted Prison Stay
Notorious Chiefs Supporter to Spend Three Decades in Colorado's Supermax Prison, Post Oklahoma Detention
Xaviar Michael Babudar, infamously known as "ChiefsAholic", has found himself with a lengthy prison sentence. But did he expect to spend nearly three decades locked away?
Unfortunately for Babudar, a 30-year-old bank robber, the courts have sentenced him to 14.5 years in an Oklahoma penitentiary, on top of his existing 17.5-year stint in a Colorado supermax security prison [1][2][3].
Babudar's grinning mugshot was a common sight at NFL games, often dressed in Chiefs gear. However, on Monday, the roles were reversed as federal agents donned Oklahoma-style attire and stood in judgement.
Babudar was putting the crosshairs on the Tulsa Teachers Federal Credit Union in Oklahoma, orchestrating a violent $139,500 armed robbery in December 2022. Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler, in particular, took offense to the disguised desperado's audacity [4].
"It was offensive to me that a serial robber could victimize as many hardworking Americans as this guy did all across the country and only receive 17½ years from the federal government," Kunzweiler said on Monday. The severity of Babudar's actions towards the Tulsa Teachers Credit Union employees was described as "abhorrent" by Kunzweiler [4].
It seems the federal government wasn't as lenient as Babudar may have hoped for. Kunzweiler and the feds had sought a life sentence for Babudar, expressing displeasure when the court failed to grant their wish.
"He caught another break today," Kunzweiler conceded, "but at least he's going to be serving some additional time." If Babudar manages to survive his stay at the notorious 'Alcatraz of the Rockies', he'll turn 50 in an Oklahoma prison a few years shy of the Chiefs' 2057 season [5].
While it looks like Babudar has been handed the short end of the stick, he can consider himself somewhat lucky. His federal sentence means he'll serve 32 years behind bars, though he will be able to complete his federal term and then serve an additional 14.5 years in Oklahoma state prison [1].

In the realm of general news, the longer-than-anticipated prison sentence for Xaviar Michael Babudar, notorious as "ChiefsAholic," has raised questions about the leniency of sentencing in crime-and-justice cases. Interestingly, apart from his past criminal activities, Babudar had also gained notoriety for his passion for sports, particularly sports-betting, as his mugshot was a common sight at NFL games. This raises an interesting dichotomy in Babudar's life, where his love for sports and sports-betting has now led to an unwanted 14.5-year extension to his prison stay in an Oklahoma penitentiary.
