Erie County District Attorney John J. Flynn announces that 34-year-old Michael P. Naab and 37-year-old Amber L. Naab of West Seneca pleaded guilty yesterday evening before Orchard Park Town Justice Jorge S. DeRosas to one count of Disorderly Conduct. Both defendants were sentenced to a conditional discharge. Both were ordered to perform 100 hours of community service and to pay a $125 fine plus a $125 surcharge.

On Saturday, January 15, 2022, the defendants presented falsified COVID-19 vaccination cards to attend a Buffalo Bills game knowingly in violation of the vaccination policy at Highmark Stadium.  

As part of the plea, the defendants are prohibited from attending any Buffalo Bills games at the current stadium and purchasing season tickets in their own name thereafter.

DA Flynn commends the Erie County Sheriff’s Office, Erie County Department of Health, New York State Department of Health and the Buffalo Bills for their work in the investigation.

The case was prosecuted by Chief Candace K. Vogel and Assistant District Attorney Gary M. Ertel of the Special Investigations and Prosecutions (SIP) Unit.
