Dr Donald Cline, 80, ran a clinic where he was trusted for decades to help couples conceive.
But many couples have recently discovered their children's true identities. Many have slammed the doctor and authorities in Indianapolis.
Cline was convicted for lying about dozens of inseminations but Indiana law doesn't specifically prohibit fertility doctors from using their own sperm.
Yet Heather Woock, 33, recently found Cline was her dad.
She told The Atlantic she did some research using Ancestry.com and a DNA test her husband gave her for Christmas.
And her parents, who went to Cline for donor insemination, say they had no idea that he was the person who provided the sperm sample.
Many of Cline's other children have built a community since learning the news, keeping in touch through a Facebook group.
Jacoba Ballard, 37, was also sickened after the discovery.
