How much consent is needed though? IIRC Cline said in most cases that the sperm was from a medical intern. Given that he was not a medical intern, this is a lie which arguably negates consent.

Other possibilities get more murky; given that frozen sperm was not yet a solved problem, it's clear that the donor would be nearby, so what if Cline had instead said that the sperm was "From someone who works in this office" that would be factually true, if misleading. What if he didn't claim any particular source for the sperm at all?
