"Proficient swimmer": Tafari Campbell drowning death while paddleboarding comes under scrutiny
SK POP ^ | Jul 27, 2023 | Karishma Rao

Netizens are questioning news reports that claimed that Tafari Campbell died from a paddleboarding accident. The 45-year-old worked as a personal chef to former US president Barack Obama. He died during his recent trip to Martha’s Vineyard. Internet users are finding it hard to believe that he died due to the water sport considering his proficiency in swimming..

Tafari Campbell was visiting Massachusetts Island from his Virginia home. He went missing in the Edgartown Great Pond waters on Sunday. Police endlessly searched for the food connoisseur until they received a call about a male paddleboarder who had reportedly “gone into the water.”

The police announced that they were told that Campbell:

“appeared to briefly struggle to stay on the surface, and then submerged.” Their statement went on to add that Tafari Campbell was accompanied by another person who “observed him go under the water.”

The chef’s body was found eight feet underwater. It was also noted that he was not wearing a life jacket.

Law enforcement announced that the Obama family was not present at their residence at the time of Campbell’s accident.

Since news of Campbell’s passing broke online, netizens are finding it difficult to believe that he died from a paddleboarding incident as his Instagram account proved that he was a “proficient swimmer.”

...

Don't listen to anyone telling you Obama’s chef, Tafari Campbell, couldn't swim

...

The Massachusetts State Police Detective Unit had announced that Campbell’s death remains under investigation

Just another one of those unsolved mysteries.

WTH wears a life jacket in eight feet of water? It’s basically a swimming pool.

I’m not sure, but I think Loretta Fuddy, Hawaii Health Director may have also been a proficient swimmer. But stuff happens.

first reports said he couldn’t swim. didn’t make sense with a pond on the property. most people can swim...or they can bounce in 8 ft of water

Just like the Biden's weren't at the White House when the coke was found.

“Someone” was with the drowning chef, but unnamed.
“Someone” called 9-1-1 from the Soetoro compound but was unnamed.

Barry and Big Mike were both not at their home and at their home simultaneously based on mixed news reports.

So....was Barry the “someone” who was with the chef in the water but not at the house, then did he call 9-1-1 when he got back to the house?

The current storyline allows for plausible deniability for Barry.

Will Barry soon be wearing a phoney Chappaquiddick Neck Brace?

Campbell has shared on Instagram that he was an avid swimming and fitness enthusiast.

So then, I guess he must be a racist/white supremacist.

If he had been...would be Secret Service around. Just sounds like he went out alone.

accompanied by another person who “observed him go under the water.”

*************

Why the veil of secrecy surrounding the other person?

Simple question that needs to be asked.

Starting to smell fishy.

Law enforcement announced that the Obama family was not present at their residence at the time of Campbell’s accident.

According to other reports, that statement proved to be false. Both BO and Mooch and the 2 daughters were there.
