ChiefsAholic Arrested In California; Charged With Robbery & Money Laundering

ChiefsAholic, real name Xavier Babudar, was detained earlier in March on suspicion of robbing a bank.


The police have been seeking for him ever since he took off the leg monitor that was attached to him and afterwards jumped bail. After his capture, the FBI unit in Kansas City released a statement announcing his detention.

A 28-year-old man named Xaviar Michael Babudar is accused of stealing from banks and moving stolen goods over state boundaries.

Babudar is charged with robbing the Tulsa Teachers Federal Credit Union on December 16, 2022, according to court records. He removed his ankle monitor in late March 2023 after being freed on bail in February 2023, setting up a nationwide manhunt.

The following is what the KC FBI tweeted:

The FBI in Kansas City commended the Lincoln police and the FBI unit in Sacramento for their assistance in locating Babudar on Friday. Their statement went on to say:

“According to an affidavit filed in support of the federal criminal complaint, Babudar purchased and redeemed more than $1 million in chips from various casinos in Missouri, Kansas, and Illinois between April and December 2022.”

In accordance with the affidavit, Babudar is accused of using neighborhood casinos and bank accounts to launder the crimes’ profits. By using this technique of money laundering, he was able to hide the monies’ illegal sources while making it challenging for law enforcement to identify their source.


In Sacramento, California, federal court, Babudar is due to appear later.
