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:
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.

Should be under scrutiny.
But a grown man who posts a clip of him kicking in flippers in a pool, with an instructor looking on, and labels it “progress” should not be described as proficient in swimming.
Who starts to learn how to swim after they are 40 year’s old?
Was he staying at the Obama home while the Obama’s weren’t there? He has a wife, wonder why there is no mention of her whereabouts.
Couldn’t swim well but, gets on a paddle board?
Believable..../s
I should have known. I guess I assumed, which is “whitesplaining”.
Is that a thing now?
I’m too busy shopping for Sperry boat shoes and khakis to look it up.
Why was the man’s hat found in the water? What was the need for a hat while paddleboarding at night?
People are nuts. Just because one is a good swimmer doesn’t prevent one from drowning. Not because someone did you in but rather you put yourself in the wrong situation. It’s sad but it happens
Maybe they are trying to get away from you
True that
Sorry, I should have checked again to see where I read that his hat was found in the water before I posted.
Fell off paddle board, shot himself in back of head, found ashore bound to a tree.
No foul play found.
I wonder if they’ll release the autopsy, and toxicology reports. Probably not. It will just be another mysterious death with no clear determination as to how he met his fate.
The authorities say that Obama wasn’t at home at the time of the accident. Just like the Secret Service said that Hunter Biden wasn’t in the White House when the cocaine was found. Yeah right. What I want to know is who was the unnamed “second person” present in the water with the drowned individual. It couldn’t be you-know-who, right?
Initial report was that the other paddle boarder saw him come up, and then go back under.
Air will probably be found in his lungs, just like Mary Jo’s.
“Who starts to learn how to swim after they are 40 year’s old?”
People who realize they missed out on a lot as a kid? People who think paddle boarding looks like a lot of fun and they want to do it. People who love learning new things regardless of age. People who want to go paddle boarding with their friends.
That’s who.
The chef’s body was found eight feet underwater [with a cement block tied to his ankle]
No autopsy?

Gas stoves.
Seems like the type that ought to wear a life jacket.
