Only a week after the untimely and tragic passing of their close friend and personal chef, Tafari Campbell, the Obamas were seen in public, seemingly unharmed and unfazed.
Exclusive photos obtained by Daily Mail captured Barack and Michelle Obama separately at the Vineyard Golf Club and Farm Neck Country Club. These are the first public images of the Obamas since the loss of their dear friend and personal chef.
Wearing a green polo shirt and white shorts, Barack Obama was spotted enjoying a round of golf at the private Vineyard Golf Club. Observers noticed that the former president had bandaged fingers, leading to speculations online.
Citizen journalist Travis from Flint, Michigan, commented, “just days after his personal chef and friend died in a very mysterious paddle boarding accident, Barack Obama appears to have injured fingers and a black eye. We still don’t know who the other person was and Obama loves paddle boarding. I think we can all guess what happened at this point!”
Michelle, on the other hand, was seen engaged in an intense tennis match with three of her friends at the nearby Farm Neck Country Club.
The cause behind the tragic death of Tafari Campbell remains shrouded in mystery.
It was previously reported that law enforcement in Martha’s Vineyard has left significant gaps in the details surrounding the unfortunate drowning of Obama’s private chef, Tafari Campbell.
The call log of the 911 distress call, received on the night of the accident, curiously omits any information about the reason for the call.
Tafari Campbell, aged 45, met his tragic end while paddle boarding on Great Edgartown Pond, Martha’s Vineyard, on a Sunday night. Reports suggest he was not alone, but the local police have yet to disclose the identity of the other person involved.
Police confirmed that Campbell was visiting Martha’s Vineyard and was employed by the Obamas at the time of his death. Barack and Michelle Obama were not at their home but were in town when the incident occurred.
On the night of the incident, the Edgartown Police Department’s logs indicate the receipt of a 911 distress call at precisely 7:46 pm, reporting the 45-year-old struggling to stay afloat before he drowned.
Interestingly, the call log shows the reason for this call as “BLANK” – an inconsistency, given that all other calls made that night had their reasons clearly documented.
Dispatch calls between Martha’s Vineyard emergency services confirm the presence of a second paddle boarder with Campbell.
According to a statement from the Massachusetts State Police reported by MassLive, the unidentified paddleboarder attempted to swim to Campbell but tragically “did not reach him in time.”
After the unsuccessful rescue attempt, the individual managed to swim back to shore and alerted someone who then called 911.
A woman made the initial 911 call and, as of 8:18 pm, was actively searching for Campbell on a boat, according to Daily Mail.
Adding to the mystery, the call’s origin was marked as Wilson’s Landing, a popular paddle board launch site roughly two miles from the Obama residence on Turkeyland Cove. This information contradicts the Massachusetts State Police records, which state that the first call originated from the Obamas’ residence.
Maybe he does his own dirty work unlike Bill and Hillary.
