😆 Thats ridiculous, judge should have thrown out those charges. Hard to believe he has broken any laws that are actually on the books, not following clinic suggestions is not a criminal act

Dutch sperm clinic guidelines say donors should donate a maximum of 25 children or to 12 women to prevent inbreeding, incest or psychological problems for donor children.

Should, Guidelines

I find the defendant Not Guilty

I think the clinics now have a responsibility to inform all 550 kids who their father is. And/or arrange a family reunion....

Agreed. The idea that they are relying on an honor system here is laughable. Why aren't records and databases being kept of the sperm donors? This seems like a failure of the clinics or the laws overseeing them. Shitty for the parents, but the blame for this cannot lie solely on one overzealouos donor when this should have been easily prevented by some basic record keeping and policies that were more than suggestions
