The 29-year-old Kansas City Chiefs fan known as “ChiefsAholic,” who is accused of multiple bank robberies and money laundering, waived his preliminary hearing this week.
On top of that news was federal prosecutors also proposing to have new evidence that could send him away for a long time. It includes bank surveillance photos from two more alleged robberies in Nevada and California. Prosecutors are also asking to use clothing found in Babudar’s car when he was arrested in California as evidence.
Babudar is charged with one count of bank theft and one count of transporting stolen property across state lines.
Babudar was arrested in California last month for bank theft and transporting stolen property across state lines after alleged robberies across the Midwest.
After initial charges of a bank robbery in Oklahoma, he was released on bond in February 2023 and would proceed to remove his ankle monitor and fled prosecution for four months until authorities located him in Sacramento, California. At that time, they suspect that he had robbed more banks.
