Justyna was sentenced to serve 8 months of community service and given a fine. She was acquitted of the intent to supply medicine to the market.

Justyna is a founding member of the Abortion Dream Team, and campaigns for abortion access in Poland. She previously said she has no regrets about her decision to help “Ania” by posting her her own abortion pills in 2020.
