The remains of Albert Alfonso, 62, and Paul Longworth, 71, were found in a suitcase and trunk which had been left near the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol in July 2024.

Yostin Mosquera is on trial at the Old Bailey in London accused of murdering and dismembering Mr Alfonso and Mr Longworth.

The 35-year-old denies both murders but has admitted the manslaughter of Mr Alfonso.

A witness, giving evidence under the pseudonym James Smith, appeared at the trial by video link on Wednesday.

Mr Smith said he met Mr Alfonso nearly 20 years ago when he was around 17 or 18 and had gone to his flat for drinks.

He said he remembered drinking heavily and then waking up with a “banging headache”.

“I said to him, ‘what’s happened?’ – he showed me a video of me on all fours and he was penetrating me,” he told the court.

“I didn’t know what to do. I was mortified. At this point, I didn’t know my sexuality – I was confused and scared.”

He said Mr Alfonso told him if he did “favours”, the video would never be shared.

Under cross-examination, defence barrister Tom Little KC asked: “Does it cross your mind, looking back, that you were raped?”

“Now, yes,” Mr Smith replied.

“And does it cross your mind that your drink may have been spiked?”, the barrister asked.

“Now, yes,” the witness responded.

“Does it cross your mind that you were groomed by Albert Alfonso?”, Mr Little asked.

“Now, yes,” Mr Smith said.

After the alleged incident, the two met regularly, with Mr Alfonso paying Mr Smith around £150 for each sexual encounter, the court heard.

During the COVID pandemic, the witness said he became closer with Mr Alfonso and began spending time with Mr Longworth.

Mr Smith told the court he was later introduced to Mosquera.

He said the relationship between Mosquera and Mr Alfonso was “good – very good”.

“I didn’t see anything that seemed like they disliked each other,” he added.

He described Mr Longworth as someone who “wouldn’t hurt a fly”.

Mr Smith said the final time he saw Mr Alfonso and Mr Longworth was on a Friday evening before the bodies were discovered.

“Albert gave me a hug, Paul gave me a hug, and that was the last I heard of those two,” he said.

The trial continues.
