After being sentenced to five years in prison last September, the 22-year-old who set fire to a Wyoming abortion clinic in 2022 will also have to put her hand in her pocket and pay a fine of almost $300,000 (396,000 Canadian dollars). ).
Lorna Green would then have to pay $240,000 to the clinic’s insurer, $33,500 to the building’s owner and $24,500 to the founder and president of the Wellspring Heath Access clinic, the “New York Daily News” reported Wednesday.
The young woman entered the clinic building in May 2022 and set the fire after pouring gasoline on the floor. The clinic was expected to open its doors a few weeks later.
She was arrested last March before pleading guilty to a federal arson charge in June. A few months later, Ms. Green was sentenced to five years in prison and three years of probation.
Wellspring Health Access was Wyoming’s second abortion clinic when it opened in April 2023. It is now the only existing clinic in the entire state after the other one closed earlier this month, due to the increase in costs.
Wyoming is among the states that passed a law banning abortion last March. This decree, however, has been challenged in court and remains pending.
