Fox News host Jesse Watters is raising eyebrows with his latest conspiracy theory: that the mysterious death of Barack Obama’s personal chef on Martha’s Vineyard over the summer is not what it seems.
On his show Tuesday, Watters questioned the narrative behind the 45-year-old Obama chef’s sudden and mysterious passing after a partly redacted 911 call connected to the incident was released by Martha’s Vineyard authorities this week.
“The 911 call in the drowning of Obama’s personal chef, Tafari Campbell, has been released,” Watters reported. “We knew a Secret Service agent placed a call after the female Obama staffer paddle-boarding with Tafari alerted him of the drowning.”
“Now we also know that there were two calls made,” he continued. “They’ve been released, heavily redacted, likely in order to protect the First Family.”

Watters then questioned why the Obama family was not mentioned on the redacted 911 call. He also questioned why the female Obama staffer who was said to be with Campbell at the time of his death was not mentioned.

“There’s no mention of the Obamas on the call,” the Jesse Watters Primetime host charged. “But we now know the former president arrived at the incident command post after the 911 call was placed and spoke to Secret Service and police.”
“There’s also no mention on the call of the female Obama staffer who is paddle-boarding with Tafari when he drowned,” Watters continued. “We’ll continue to update this story and again, our deepest condolences to Tafari’s family.”
Watters’ comments have sparked a heated debate online, with some people accusing him of spreading misinformation and others praising him for raising important questions.
Only time will tell whether Watters’ suspicions are justified. But one thing is for sure: the mysterious death of Barack Obama’s personal chef is a story that is not going away anytime soon.
