Deranged kidnapper Thomas Lippert replaced donor sperm with his at in vitro fertilization clinic, possibly more than once

My God, can you imagine? Kidnapper and pervert Thomas R. Lippert got a job at an in vitro fertilization clinic and used his sperm without the client’s knowledge. Worse, he may have done it more than once and the people may not even know.

Who am I?: Annie Branum, 21, who was fathered by a convicted kidnapper who swapped his sperm with her father’s sample at an IVF clinic in Utah, is trying to come to terms with who she really is

Thomas R. Lippert, who is now dead, served two years in prison for kidnapping a student from Purdue University, Indiana in 1975 and performing ‘love experiments’ on her including electroshock therapy, threatening her family and locking her up in a black box over a three-week period.  

Lippert went on to work at the Reproductive Medical Technologies clinic in Salt Lake City, Utah from 1988 to 1993.

The family who discovered their 21-year-old daughter was fathered by a convicted kidnapper who swapped his sperm with her would-have-been biological father’s sample at an IVF clinic in Utah have gone public for the first time since their horrific discovery.

And the shock is almost too much to bear for the young woman, Annie Branum, who now has to come to terms with the most existential question of all time – ‘who am I?’

‘I thought I was this person, you know, [a combination of] my mum and my dad. But now my dad is not my biological father,’ said Annie on Friday. ‘Who am I? Who am I?’
