  • It's going to be hard to make this comment with sufficient nuance / sensitivity on a text medium, but what is the difference between using an anonymous donor and the doctor himself providing it? Just the ick factor?

    Clearly the lack of disclosure is wrong, but that is a slightly separate issue (that doctors probably didn't think would ever come to light when doing this in the 70s and 80s).

  • Breach of contract. A civil thing not criminal.

    Presumably as the Dr gave them information about the donor that matched what the patients sought rather than described himself, and so promised sperm that want delivered - whilst delivering his own.
