Judicial Watch’s FOIA request uncovered new details about the drowning of Tafari Campbell, the Obamas’ chef, at their Martha’s Vineyard estate. Fox News host Jesse Watters reported that Campbell’s paddleboarding companion, Ms. Taylor, witnessed him struggle and sink in Edgartown Great Pond. She alerted Secret Service agents, but their boats were inoperable, delaying the rescue until they used a groundskeeper’s boat—too late to save Campbell. Documents reveal Barack Obama was present at the emergency scene and during Ms. Taylor’s police interview, which Watters called improper. Campbell, not a strong swimmer, drowned in 7-8 feet of murky water without a life vest. The Secret Service has surveillance footage of Campbell entering the water, but it remains unreleased. The investigation concluded it was an accidental drowning with no foul play.
