The state dismissed a Class B felony intent to deliver heroin and a Class B felony conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance within 1,000 feet of a school charge on Friday against Ariel Marie Litwin, 28. She pleaded guilty to Class C felony possession of methamphetamine and Class C felony fleeing from a police officer in a motor vehicle. No sentence is listed on the North Dakota Courts site for these offenses.

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of her co-defendant, Todd Denard Wilkes Jr., 24, of Eastpointe, Mich., who is charged with Class B felony possession with intent to deliver heroin and Class B felony conspiracy to deliver heroin.

According to court documents, Litwin picked up Wilkes from the Amtrak station in Minot on Feb. 23, 2020. Litwin fled when police tried to stop her vehicle for driving with expired registration. The vehicle was eventually located and Litwin and Wilkes were located walking away from the vehicle. Litwin had in her purse a syringe loaded with a liquid she identiifed as methamphetamine. At the jail, Litwin was searched and the search turned up a vacuum sealed bag that contained two individual bags, one with light blue tinted powder and one with light tan powder, each appearing to contain approximately one ounce of heroin. Litwin told the officers that Wilkes gave her the heroin to hide on her person after he got off the train.

A probation revocation hearing in another case was also held for Litwin on Friday before Judge Todd Cresap.
