(Rolette County, ND) — A Rolette County commissioner accused of sexually assaulting a teen is expected to make a plea change next week. Craig Poitra was arrested last October after a victim told authorities he sexually assaulted them in the summer of 2017. Poitra would have been 43-years-old and the victim 17-years-old at the time of the alleged incident. He was scheduled to stand trial in Rolette County next month for a felony count of corruption of a minor, among other misdemeanor charges. Instead, the courts scheduled an unspecified plea change during a hearing next week.
