Pedophile Tracking Sex Offender Downloaded and Shared Child Porn at Library

Convicted child molester and level 2 sex offender Malcolm Bruce Wheeler Jr. is being investigated by the King County Sheriff’s Office for allegedly downloading child pornography through the Covington Public Library’s wireless Internet, and then sharing those images with another man in the library’s restroom.

Wheeler is also being investigated in a possible child-luring case, after “befriending and playing fantasy games with a minor male at the Covington Library,” according to police documents.

The attempted luring first came to investigators’ attention in April, around the time Wheeler’s brother reported his concerns to sheriff’s deputies that Wheeler was “spending all of his time at the Covington Library since losing his job several months ago.”

According to documents, the intended luring victim often skipped school to hang out at the library and play a fantasy card game called “Magic” – often with Wheeler.  The boy’s family “believed it was odd that a man in his 30’s or 40’s was playing fantasy games with minors at the library all day.”  When family members searched on-line, they learned Wheeler was a convicted sex offender, according to police documents.

King County sheriff’s deputies have been in contact with Wheeler, who “admitted to accessing the Covington public library’s wireless internet with the intent to download or view images of child pornography while he was in the library,” according to documents recently filed in King County Superior Court.

Wheeler also admitted to “intentionally accessing, viewing and sharing these images of child pornography via his cell phone with another adult male while they sat in individual stalls in the men’s restroom of the Covington public library.”

He also admitted to investigators that he shared “images of child pornography on more than one occasion over the course of a couple of months with his cell phone at the Covington public library.”

Wheeler has not been arrested and was not available for comment on Thursday.  Meanwhile, his roommate told KIRO 7 Wheeler has been banned from the Covington Library, but no one from the King County Library System returned multiple calls seeking more information and comment.

KIRO 7 has also learned that Wheeler also was in trouble with the Department of Corrections in 2013 for viewing pornography at the King County branch library in Kent.
