Retired fertility doctor accused of impregnating several patients pleads not guilty to obstruction


A retired Indianapolis fertility doctor said he used his own sperm about 50 times instead of donated sperm that his patients were expecting, impregnating several women decades ago, according to court documents. Dr. Donald Cline, 77, pleaded not guilty Monday to two felony obstruction of justice charges for misleading authorities who were investigating complaints from two of the now-adult children against him. Cline is accused of being the biological father of at least eight people, the youngest of which would be about 30. He had told his patients that they were receiving sperm from medical or dental residents or medical students and that no single donor's sperm was used more than three times. Cline "said he used his own sperm whenever he didn't have a donor sample available," the affidavit said he told them.
