Jonathan Jacob Meijer told mothers that he had adhered to legal limits on sperm donation even though he had already fathered hundreds of children in the Netherlands.

When Meijer met with Eva, who chose him as a donor in 2018, he allegedly told her he would stop at the legal limit when he reached it. She later learned that he had hit that limit long before he met her.
