There could be more charges on the way for Dustin Paxton.

The 30-year-old has been found fit to stand trial, after an unusual 60-day psychiatric evaluation.

He’s elected to be tried by judge and jury and will appear in court again on November 4th.

That’s when a third set of charges involving another apparent victim are expected.

Paxton is accused of assault and forcible confinement in relation to a former roommate who was dropped off at a Regina hospital, emaciated, mutilated and burned, in April.
