NATION IN BRIEF : VIRGINIA : Doctor Impregnated Up to 75, Court Told

An infertility specialist accused of using his own sperm to impregnate women may have fathered as many as 75 children, a prosecutor in Alexandria, Va., said. Assistant U.S. Atty. Randy Bellows said during a hearing that workers in the former Vienna, Va., clinic run by Cecil B. Jacobson never saw evidence of a sperm donor, and that he treated more than 75 women who were having problems becoming pregnant. At the hearing, U.S. District Judge James Cacheris denied a government request to close the courtroom to the public and media during testimony of parents involved in the case. Jacobson faces trial on Feb. 10.
