A double murderer has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 42 years after killing a couple and dumping their remains in suitcases near Clifton Suspension Bridge.
Yostin Andres Mosquera, 35, killed civil partners Albert Alfonso, 62, and Paul Longworth, 71, on July 8 last year in their flat in Scotts Road, Shepherd’s Bush, west London.
Mosquera, who was staying with the couple, “decapitated and dismembered” them, froze parts of their remains and took the rest to the Bristol landmark.
A jury at Woolwich Crown Court unanimously convicted Mosquera of both murders earlier this year, and he pleaded guilty at the same court earlier on Friday to three counts of possessing child pornography.
Sentencing him for the murders, Mr Justice Bennathan told the defendant: “Paul Longworth and Albert Alfonso were a settled, affectionate couple.
“It was their tragedy that you, Yostin Mosquera, came into their lives.
“I now have to sentence you for these premeditated and thoroughly wicked crimes.”
