A man who will stand trial in the fall for allegedly torturing his roommate is in a Calgary courtroom on a separate matter.
Dustin Paxton is charged with the assault and sexual assault of a 17-year-old woman in 2009.
Prosecutors wrapped up their case Tuesday morning after a day and a half of witness testimony, first, from the victim Paxton is accused of assaulting, who told court Monday the accused had an explosive temper that sparked a series of violent assaults.
Tuesday, court heard testimony from a woman who called 911 after growing tired of the screaming from a residence upstairs.
Police who responded to that call also appeared and testified the victim appeared unharmed and in no distress. They say she willingly went back into the home.
