A Kelowna man took the stand in a Supreme Court room for the first time on May 13, to face one charge of sexual assault.
On the third day of what is scheduled to be a two week trial by jury, Brandon Emslie, 27, defended himself against allegations of assault stemming from an incident that occurred on Oct. 26, 2018.
The claimant91裸聊视频檚 name has been protected by a publication ban and she will be referred to as F.C.
Earlier in the trial, while under cross examination F.C. maintained that she said was not a willing participant of the unprotected sex.

Emslie stated that he intended to use a condom but that his penis 91裸聊视频渁ccidentally slipped in,91裸聊视频� to the claimant91裸聊视频檚 vagina.
He alleged that the sexual encounter was consensual but said that after the incident the two agreed that they 91裸聊视频減robably shouldn91裸聊视频檛 have done that.91裸聊视频�
The defendant then told the court he was the one to stop the sex, not F.C.
Emslie and F.C. initially met while he was her trainer at local gym. They later reconnected on a dating app.
He has since lost his job at the gym due to criminal charges relating to the case.
The trial continues on Monday.
