A 62-year-old man whose dismembered body was found in a suitcase paid a teenager £100 for sex sessions, a court heard.
The bodies of Albert Alfonso, 62, and his partner Paul Longworth, 71, were found at Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol on July 10 in large suitcases.
The couple had opened the doors to Yostin Andres Mosquera, 35, who is accused of murdering them.
The Columbian porn actor travelled to the UK and had been staying at the couple’s home on Scotts Road, Shepherd’s Bush, west London.
He had met Mr Alfonso online where Mosquera used the names ‘iamblackmaster and ‘mrd-k20cm’, the court heard.
He came to the UK to participate in sex acts, and he dominated and degraded Mr Alfonso – which was filmed and posted online.
Mosquera denies murdering retired handyman Mr Longworth, Woolwich Crown Court heard.
He also denies murdering Mr Alfonso but admits manslaughter.
When officers found the bodies, one of the suitcases had a tag linking them back to their west London flat.
When officers searched the address, they found the heads of both Mr Longworth and Mr Alfonso inside a chest freezer.
Jurors heard today from a man who was involved in extreme sex with Mr Alfonso and Mosquera.
He uses the pseudonym ‘James Smith’ in order to protect his privacy.
In a pre-recorded police interview, he said he first met Mr Alfonso nearly 20 years ago when he was 17 or 18 playing rugby.
‘I remember him coming up to me and saying “You’re a good player, you look good”.’
He saw him again and they had a few drinks together before going back to Mr Alfonso’s flat.
‘I got myself p***ed to be honest. I didn’t drink much, I had three pints.
Mr Alfonso then told him they had had sex and he had filmed it, the court heard.
‘He showed me a video, I didn’t know what to think.
‘I didn’t know what to think, I didn’t know if it was my fault or – I was only young, I don’t know if I was 17 or 18.’
He said he was paid £100 a session by Mr Alfonso.
Mr Smith told the officer that he was worried about the video being made public.
‘In my head I said it is what it is, I can’t get out of it so I might as well get money for it.
‘I started to see him more and I said to him is there anything else and he started talking to me about slavery and how he’s into black dom.’
He said he then met Mosquera.
‘He showed me a woman and a child, he said he’s got a child and a woman back home, he said he played football.
‘He said Albert paid for his transport. I asked if he’s gay or straight and he said he’s just doing it for the money, I said great so am I.’
He said Mosquera seemed to enjoy the sex sessions and enjoy the power.
Mr Smith also said he and Mosquera would dominate and degrade Mr Alfonso.
The officer asked him how he got on with Mosquera.
‘He was very nice, extremely nice. He said he’s got a girlfriend, I said I’ve got a girlfriend.
‘It was just pleasant, it was amicable. I didn’t have a problem with him.’
He said Mosquera took his number and they then went for a drink the two of them to watch the football and talk to girls.
They then went back to see Mr Alfonso and did another session.
‘Albert gave me a hug and said get home safe, and Paul gave me a hug and said football’s coming home and that was last I heard from anybody.’
He said this was on 5 July last year.
He said Mosquera then messaged him and asked what he did for work which he thought was odd.
Mr Smith was asked what Mr Alfonso was like outside of sex.
‘Outside of the sex he was very nice, very respectful, very caring.
‘Paul was everything to him. He said you’ve always been there for us and if anything ever happened to me you will always look after Paul.
‘He adored Paul.
‘He liked going out on bike rides, he gave to charity, he was pretty healthy and fit.
‘Paul was your typical Irish man, he just went to the pub.
‘He wouldn’t hurt a fly, he had a massive mouth on him but he wouldn’t hurt a fly.
‘They were both fostered and they didn’t have many friends.’
‘Paul was dyslexic, Albert had to help him with his bank accounts.
‘Paul couldn’t survive a day without Albert in the house.’
Mosquera is assisted in the dock by a Spanish interpreter.
Mr Longworth was Irish and Mr Alfonso was originally from France but had obtained British citizenship.
The trial continues.
