Connecticut- A male prostitute viciously stomped on a Connecticut filmmaker’s head – then smothered him inside a Bronx motel during a robbery-turned-murder, police sources said yesterday.

Mitchael Ducksworth, 42, of Stamford was discovered brutally murdered around 6 a.m. Sunday inside the Andrea Motel on the New England Thruway.

Cops charged Alberto Pagan, 46, of Mount Vernon with murder in the brutal attack at the Eastchester motel.

Sources said Pagan, a prostitute, tried to rob Ducksworth in a ground-floor room.

“It turned into a robbery and got carried away,” a police source said.

A front desk clerk found the body inside the ground-floor room, and Pagan was later arrested.

The medical examiner’s office determined that Ducksworth died after suffering blunt head trauma and being smothered.

Ducksworth was president of Stamford-based M.T.D. Group Inc., a filmmaking company, and was a co-founder of the Northeast Media Group, a publishing company.

“Mitch lived his life with integrity and grace,” said his sister, Marilyn Ducksworth, a senior vice president at G.P. Putnam’s Sons publishing. “He was loved and respected by all who knew him. This is a tragic loss for his family and friends.”

Pagan was being held without bail.
