Another update: yesterday, the New York Times ran a totally-believable story headlined, “
Drowning Death of Obama Family Chef Is Ruled an Accident.”
You’ll recall, I’m sure, that last month the Obama family chef, Tafari Campbell, 45, was paddleboarding around near the former president’s home when he suddenly and unexpectedly drowned. According to police reports, emergency services responded to an unidentified caller who reported a “male paddleboarder who had gone into the water, appeared to briefly struggle to stay on the surface and then submerged and did not resurface.”

The Obama chef story just got a lot more complicated. Judicial Watch published an article to its website late last week headlined, “
Judicial Watch: Police Records Show Secret Service Reported Obama’s Personal Chef Tafari Campbell was Missing, Body was Found Using Sonar.”
Based on police documents obtained from public records requests, Judicial Watch added a bunch of new details, including that the Secret Service first reported Campbell missing, which is interesting, but one item stood out beyond that: the police found Obama chef Tafari Campbell’s clothes long before they found his body.
From the July 23rd police report:
Secret Service Agent [REDACTED] advd best access is from the residence, they are deploying a rescue swimmer and a zodiac boat right now.
RP adv no lifevest was worn, they have recovered the paddle board and clothing. Still no contact with missing party. They still have a boat and rescue swimmers in the area.
In other words, Campbell was, apparently, paddle boarding
naked. In Martha’s Vineyard. And a diligent search by Secret Service rescue swimmers failed to turn up his body.
As regular readers know, so far I’ve reported this bizarre story straight as a rail. Apart from suggesting an obvious connection with the jabs, I have not indulged any of the unverifiable but quite understandable speculation over chef Campbell’s untimely demise.
But this nude paddleboarding business doesn’t add up.
From the beginning, we were told police had been notified by an anonymous informant (whose name remains redacted) who said they saw Campbell “briefly” struggling in the water next to his board — with another paddelboarder.
Why wouldn’t the anonymous informant have mentioned Campbell was naked? Who was the other paddleboarder? Were they naked?
We’re talking about snooty Martha’s Vineyard. I refuse to believe that naked paddleboarding, or naked anything for that matter, is tolerated in that prude, swanky domain. They didn’t even tolerate a handful of illegal aliens shipped there from Florida — in spite of virtuously labeling themselves a “sanctuary city.”
A nude Tafari should’ve stood out like a sore thumb, or a sore whatever was sticking out. You know what I mean.
And then we get to the why. Nothing at all on his fairly-extensive social media suggested Campbell was a nudist. That only leaves a shameful, private fetish as the remaining semi-innocent explanation. But why would a married professional chef, who used to cook at the White House, whose livelihood depended on impeccably staying out of trouble, be paddling around in potential risk of being arrested for a sex crime at any second just because a nosy neighbor happened to look over in his direction?
I have no doubt the Martha’s Vineyard police are used the eccentric habits of high-net-worth residents and used to exercising a certain level of … discretion. But come on. This is the age of cell phones, NEST cameras, and P1000 zoom with night vision. Why take the chance?
The imagination boggles. What do
you think happened?
