International News: Fertility doctor accused of using own sperm to impregnate patients dies in a plane crash

Posted: Wednesday, May 31, 2023. 10:44 am CST.

By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: A fertility doctor that was accused of using his own sperm to impregnate patients died on Sunday in the crash of an experimental plane.

According to ABC News, the hand-built airplane he was in fell apart mid-flight and crashed.

Dr Morris Wortman, 72, was a passenger in the plane.

Investigators say that “the wings of the aircraft became detached from the fuselage and fell to the ground in an orchard.”

Dr Wortman was sued in 2021 by the daughter of one of his patients, who became pregnant in the 1980s. Dr Wortman was accused of secretly using his own sperm while telling the patient the donor had been a local medical student.

It was a secret he maintained even after the daughter, his biological offspring, became his gynecology patient.
