Colombian killer who murdered couple and dumped their dismembered bodies in suitcases at Clifton Suspension Bridge is jailed for at least 42 years

A Colombian porn star who murdered two gay men and dumped their remains in suitcases at Clifton Suspension Bridge has been jailed for at least 42 years.Yostin Andres Mosquera, 35, killed civil partners Alberto Alfonso, 62, and Paul Longworth, 71, at their home in west London last summer.
Mosquera, who had been staying with the couple, decapitated them before bundling their bloody remains into two trunks and hired a man-with-a-van who unwittingly drove the adult film actor to Bristol two days later.
There, Mosquera attempted to dispose of the suitcases on the bridge late at night but was interrupted by a man who was concerned by the defendant's suspicious behaviour.
Mosquera, who spoke little English, fled the scene, but luggage tags linked the remains to the dead couple's home in Shepherd's Bush, roughly 115 miles away.
He claimed he killed Mr Alfonso in self-defence after the swimming instructor murdered his long-term partner Mr Longworth. But jurors dismissed his version of events at trial and found him guilty of both murders.
Sex worker Mosquera was handed two life sentences for murder at Woolwich Crown Court today, and was told he will serve a minimum of 42 years - but may never be set free.
Judge Mr Justice Bennathan described the crimes as 'premeditated and thoroughly wicked', while police said 'evil' Mosquera's 'harrowing' and gruesome murders left a lasting impact on investigators.
The judge said the 'harmless' victims were well-liked by friends, but added: 'It was their tragedy that you, Yostin Mosquera, came into their lives.' 
Mosquera was accompanied in the dock by six security guards and aided by a Spanish-language translator. He showed no emotion as his sentence was handed down.
The married father-of-two also admitted three new offences of possessing thousands of indecent images of children, which were found on his laptop after his arrest.  
This included 1,500 category A still or moving images - the most serious grading on the scale - as well as 750 category B files and 4,000 category C images. 
Victims were believed to be as young as two years old, the court heard. 
The judge said the offences were 'appalling', and added: 'They were very young children being subjected to a variety of sexual abuse of horrifying detail and nature.' 
He was handed a separate 16-month jail term, which he will serve concurrently with the life sentences for murder. 
The judge said he would be deported to Colombia if he is ever released from jail by the parole board after serving the 42-year sentence, minus the 446 days he has already spent in custody.
Detective Chief Inspector Ollie Stride, who led the Met's investigation, said the case was 'one of the most harrowing murders my team and I have ever investigated'.
Speaking after sentencing, he added: '(The victims) had opened their door to a man so evil he would take advantage of their lively spirit and generosity, and murder them to satisfy his own financial gains.
'This is a case which has deeply affected many people from all walks of life - and it has been traumatic for all of my colleagues involved to work on.' 
The murder trial featured large amounts of CCTV and camera footage, including video captured on cameras set up in Mr Alfonso's bedroom that recorded Mosquera repeatedly stabbing Mr Alfonso to death with a knife.
Mr Alfonso was killed during a filmed sex session, with footage played in court showing Mosquera asking 'do you like it?' and also singing and dancing after the attack. 
Earlier, Mosquera violently attacked Mr Longworth with a hammer and hid his body in the storage space of a divan bed.
Forensic evidence showed Mosquera was searching for a chest freezer on Facebook Marketplace and using YouTube and Google to research where to hit someone on the head to cause a fatal injury while Mr Longworth was still alive and able to chat with a neighbour from his flat window.
Later that evening and before Mr Alfonso returned from work, Mosquera searched for how long it would take a corpse to start decomposing and accessed his boarding pass for a return flight to Colombia.
With Mr Alfonso lying dead or dying at his feet, Mosquera immediately accessed his computer and mobile phone and attempted to transfer £4,000 from the victim's bank account into his own.
Mosquera also left the flat to withdraw money at cashpoints from Mr Alfonso's bank accounts.
By the next day, Mosquera had bought and arranged delivery of a chest freezer and had organised for a stranger to take him, and the suitcases, to Bristol on 10 July.
He was arrested at Bristol Temple Meads station shortly after fleeing Clifton Suspension Bridge. 
Police later discovered the victims' heads in a chest freezer at their home.
