This is the chilling moment a blood-soaked killer sings and dances naked after barbarically murdering a couple in their home before dumping their dismembered bodies on Clifton Suspension Bridge.
Yostin Andres Mosquera, 35, was today convicted of murdering Alberto Alfonso, 62, during a recorded sex session just hours after bludgeoning his partner Paul Longworth, 71, over the head with a hammer on July 8 last year.
Leaving Mr Alfonso to die, the Colombian porn actor casually walks across the bedroom, ripping off a face mask and gloves before he starts singing and dancing 'in elation' with his arms and hands visibly covered in blood.
He then threw a towel over the body and made his way to his victim's computer, accessing his online banking and withdrawing cash with his card in the early hours of the morning.
In a bid to cover his tracks, he cut off his victims' heads and hid them in a chest freezer at their house in Scotts Road, Shepherd's Bush, west London, where he had been staying.
The trial heard how two days later, Mosquera hired a man with a van who unwittingly drove him from London to Bristol so he could dump a suitcase and a trunk containing their chopped-up bodies on Clifton Suspension Bridge.
The grisly deaths were first discovered when the luggage was found on the iconic bridge at 11.30pm on July 10 last year. One of the suitcases had a tag on it linking them back to an address on Scotts Road where police found the heads in the freezer.
Following the guilty verdict, the Met Police has released CCTV which offers the clearest timeline yet of Mosquera's calculated plot to cover up the double murder before he was arrested outside Bristol Temple Meads station.
At Woolwich Crown Court today, Mosquera was found guilty of both murders after jurors deliberated for five hours and three minutes.
Chilling footage shows Mosquera struggling to drag a red taped-up suitcase towards Clifton Suspension Bridge at around 11.23pm. It was bursting at the seams with blood leaking out shortly before the human remains were discovered.
Mosquera was then approached by two members of staff who manage the bridge, while a cyclist followed him to take a video of his face which was shared by police during their manhunt at the time.
Revealed for the first time today, a series of chronological CCTV clips shows Mosquera's victims' last moments and the immediate bid to dispose of their bodies.
At 10.17am on July 8 last year - one of the men, believed to be Mr Longworth, can be seen closing a window and putting a curtain up. CCTV shows Mosquera looking out of the window at 12.30pm, drawing the curtains.
They remained shut until about 1pm, when Mosquera opened them again which prosecution suggested was when Mr Longworth had been killed. CCTV shows Mr Alfonso - wearing a green hoodie - returning home from work at around 6.43pm on a bike, unaware his partner has been murdered.
Later that day, at 7.21pm, Mosquera and Mr Alfonso are seen walking into the house after an outing. This was a matter of hours before they had extreme sex and Mosquera stabbed him to death on camera.
In graphic footage shown to the court, and released today, naked Mosquera is seen singing and dancing with blood on his arms and hands after murdering Mr Alfonso.
What followed was Mosquera's chilling plot to cover up the murders. At around 11.57am the following morning, two men arrived at the flat in a white van, where they handed Mosquera a huge chest freezer, where he hid his two victims' heads.
The trial had heard that on the day of the murders, at 11.07am, Mosquera viewed an image of a chest freezer.
The rest of the bodies were chopped up and put in suitcases to be transported to Bristol.
Mosquera told the court how he had originally chosen to take the bodies to Brighton and had contacted a man with a van to arrange transport.
However, he later decided to take the bodies to Bristol instead. On July 10, at around 6.35pm, a man driving a red van belonging to Corney & Barrow - an independent wine retailer which serves King Charles and Queen Camilla - arrives at the flat.
He and Mosquera are seen putting a trunk and a suitcase - which it is now known to have contained the bodies - into the back of the wine merchant's red van. MailOnline has contacted Corney & Barrow for comment.
Hours later, at 11.23pm, Mosquera is now in Bristol, where he is seen on CCTV lugging one of the suitcases towards the Clifton Suspension Bridge.
The court heard that he had planned to 'hurl' the suitcases off the bridge but he 'miscalculated his own strength'.
Police have also released mobile phone footage of cyclist Douglas Cunningham riding after Mosquera and filming him after becoming suspicious.
Mr Cunningham had approached Mosquera, who was standing by a large red suitcase. Another suitcase and a large silver trunk were nearby.
Mosquera told him there were car parts inside the suitcases but they in fact contained the bodies.
Scotland Yard has also released the frantic 999 call made by staff working on the suspension bridge.
He is heard on the call saying: 'We've had a gentleman up here dragging a case behind him. A black gentleman. At the time, we were speaking to him, he didn't speak English, trying to translate and all that malarkey.
'A guy on the bike actually spoke Spanish so was trying to have a conversation with him. The wheels of the case are broken, he says there are car parts and what have you. The case is broken and it's really heavy and there's blood coming out of it.'
'It looks like there's blood coming out of it. He then said there were two cases so he went up the road to get the second case. The guy on the bike, just a member of the public, followed him. The guy with the case has now run off.
'We are now with the case, it might not be blood. He says it is car parts, oil, it doesn't smell of that at all. It looks like blood to us. Without smashing the case open we are not going to know and that's for you. We are convinced it's blood.'
Bodycam footage of Mosquera being arrested on a bench outside Bristol Temple Meads in the early hours of July 13 was also released. He is pinned to the ground and asked to confirm his name by officers.
One of the suitcases had a tag on it linking them back to an address on Scotts Road where police found the head in the freezer.
Mosquera, a Colombian national, met Mr Alfonso online and used the names 'iamblackmaster and 'mrd—k20cm'.
The court heard Mosquera visited the couple in London in October 2023 and that they travelled to Colombia in March 2024. He returned to England last June on the promise of English lessons and financial support from Mr Alfonso, whom he had met years earlier on porn websites.
The court heard how he also participated in sex acts and dominated and degraded Mr Alfonso who filmed it and posted the footage online. He was in a paid sexual relationship with Mr Alfonso.
Prosecutors told the trial how Mr Alfonso, a swimming instructor at Mode Gym in Acton, and Mr Longworth, a retired handyman, were in a happy long-term relationship when they were barbarically murdered by Mosquera.
Mr Longworth is believed to have been killed by multiple blows to the head with a hammer between 12.30pm and 1pm on July 8 last year when Mosquera was seen closing curtains to a first floor window on CCTV.
Mosquera shattered Mr Longworth's skull before hiding his body in a divan bed, the court heard. He later cut his corpse up with a power tool and knife and stuffed it in a suitcase, the trial heard.
Later that day, Mr Alfonso was stabbed to death after he and Mosquera were recording themselves having sex. Jurors were shown the horror footage of Mr Alfonso being killed on camera.
Mr Alfonso was in a 'submissive' role and referred to Mosquera as 'master' during the recorded session.
'What is striking, when one considers the footage, is just how calm and in control the defendant remains throughout', prosecutor Deanna Heer, KC, told the trial.
On the day that the two men were killed Mosquera googled 'Where on the head is a knock fatal?' and 'How long before a corpse starts to decompose?'
'The post mortem examination of his body revealed that he had suffered severe blunt force trauma to the head which caused his death', said Ms Heer.
She explained that there were injuries on his hand, which suggested that he had tried to defend himself.
'When the flat was later searched, a hammer was found lying on the floor in the hallway. It was found to be stained with Paul Longworth's blood', she said.
Earlier in his evidence, Mosquera claimed Mr Alfonso cut up Mr Longworth's body after killing him.
He said he stabbed Mr Alfonso because he was 'afraid that he would do the same to me that he had done to Paul'.
Mosquera said after seeing Mr Longworth's dismembered body, he decided to do the same to Mr Alfonso's corpse.
'Yes I saw Paul's body and I cut Albert's. I don't know the exact moment but I cut it having seen Paul's body'.
The trial heard how Mosquera was interrupted by a man while he was attempting to dispose of the suitcases on Clifton Suspension Bridge.
Prosecutor Ms Heer, KC, said: 'At about 11.30pm on the night of the 10 July 2024 Douglas Cunningham was cycling home across the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol when he saw the defendant, Yostin Mosquera, standing next to a large red suitcase.
'Thinking he was a lost tourist, Mr Cunningham stopped to see if he was okay.
'A few metres away from where the defendant was standing, on the bridge approach, there was another suitcase, a large silver trunk.
'The defendant told Mr Cunningham that he was from Colombia and that the suitcase he was standing with contained car parts. That was a lie.
'In fact, the suitcases contained the decapitated and dismembered bodies of Paul Longworth and Albert Alfonso, which the defendant had taken to Bristol from their home in London where they had been killed two days before.'
The trial heard how Mosquera was visiting Mr Alfonso at the time of the killings, having returned to the UK to stay with the couple on June 9 2024.
On June 29 2024, Mr Alfonso and Mr Longworth took Mosquera to Brighton for the day, with photos showing them at Brighton pier, drinking beer and going on a zip wire.
They also engaged in sex sessions along with another man, known by pseudonym James Smith in the trial.
But on July 8 last year, Mosquera hatched his plan to kill Mr Longworth and Mr Alfonso before attempting to cover up their deaths.
Mosquera had denied both murders and sought to blame Mr Alfonso for killing Mr Longworth.
He claimed during the trial that he feared for his own life and believed he was about to be killed when he stabbed Mr Alfonso.
