Who Is Donald Cline? His Wikipedia Bio Explored
Donald Cline, well known as one of the best infertility experts, is now referred to as a fertility fraud as noted in Netflix.
Actually, this former renowned doctor used his own sperm to make women pregnant and solve their infertility problems as per Daily Mail Online. After some investigations, it was found that he used such deceptive means to make women conceive and made them unknowingly have his biological children. This led his whole image to be destroyed.
And, thus, the Medical Licensing Board made a move to disallow the Indiana University School Of Medicine alum Donald Cline to restore his license in the future.
It obviously came as a shock to all those women who thought that they were carrying the child of their beloved partners. But, who knew the truth was something else, and there lies a very dark side to it. For decades, people did not know the truth about Dr. Cline who did illegal things and no one got any clue about it up until recently.
Did Dr. Cline Of Fertility Center Realy Fathered 50 Children?
Yes, Dr. Cline, who runs a fertility center, fathered 50 children or even more illegally and inseminated women without their consent.
What’s more, in the ’70s and ’80s, he impregnated more than dozens of women with his own sperm without their permission and knowledge during the artificial insemination process.
It all started in 2014 when Jacoba Ballard, who went through a DNA test, sought out her half-siblings. And, that led to the other three women taking DNA tests. And, to their surprise, they found that they all had connections with each other because of their parental similarities. Gradually, this process continued, until the number crossed more than 50 people, whose father happens to be Dr. Donald Cline.
If it was not for the probe, this matter about illegally fathering women would never have come out in the public and the women and their children would have been always put in the shadow.
The most common physical traits that all those 50 or more children has is their blonde hair and blue eyes. And, another thing that helped in tracing the people who were fathered by Cline was their close location and their parents were acquainted with Dr. Cline at some point in their life. They all live within a 25-mile radius, thus making it possible to trace each other.
