The trial of a Trail man accused of sexual assault against a minor resumed at the Rossland Courthouse on Jan. 4 after a lengthy delay due to the availability of court room time.
William Trowell, 54, has pleaded not guilty to two counts of sexual interference of a person under 14 years old, two counts of invitation to sexual touching under 14, sexual exploitation and sexual assault, which all allegedly took place some time between 1999 and 2003 in the Prince Rupert and Castlegar areas.
