Douglas Merculief: Child predator known to babysit his prey
WANTED IN KING COUNTY -- All sex offenders are scary, but when a predator babysits his prey, that’s really bad.

"He was convicted of molesting a young boy he was in charge of babysitting. He threatened to kill the young boy. We really need your help to catch this child predator,” Emily Isaacs with the Department of Corrections said. The tattoos on Merculief’s left hand could be the clues that can help you spot him.
