A man who allegedly died during a violent home invasion was robbed under the guise of a visit from a prostitute he had seen during a cocaine bender, a court has heard.
Gregory John Hudson, from Western Australia, was found dead at a friend's Varsity Lakes townhouse in October 2014.
Benjamin Samy Ghobrial, Milan Chante Walker and Lee Benjamin Feld have pleaded not guilty to his manslaughter and are on trial in the Brisbane Supreme Court.
Mr Hudson, who worked as a carpenter for a FIFO mining operation near Gladstone, had heart problems and a fatal amount of cocaine in his blood when he died, the jury heard on Wednesday.
Opening the Crown case, prosecutor Philip McCarthy said Mr Hudson had been snorting the drug for days and going to the brothel where Ms Walker worked.
A series of texts which will be tendered at trial will show that when Mr Hudson arranged for a home visit from Ms Walker on the morning of October 23, Ms Walker and her co-accused decided to rob him of drugs, money and jewellery.
When Ms Walker arrived, she sent Mr Ghobrial a text, the jury heard.
"Just him here. There's a dog at back and doors open at back," she texted, according to Mr McCarthy.
Mr Ghobrial replied quickly: "OK. Where's the money or coke or jewellery?"
In a further exchange, Mr Ghobrial instructs Ms Walker to lure Mr Hudson from his bedroom, Mr McCarthy said.
"We're coming in five mins. F--- him hard, play music. Very important," Ghobrial allegedly texted.
Mr Ghobrial and Ms Walker have pleaded guilty to a count of burglary, while Mr Feld has pleaded not guilty.
All have pleaded not guilty to robbing Mr Hudson in company with personal violence.
Ms Walker, the jury heard, told police that while she was performing oral sex on Mr Hudson, two masked men burst into the townhouse.
She panicked and ran, but maintains he was alive when she left.
In the days after Mr Hudson died, "large sums" were drained from his bank account by a man in disguise who was using the correct PIN, Mr McCarthy said.
That, the Crown alleges, was Mr Ghobrial.
Central to the case are Mr Hudson's heart problems and the excessive drug use during the days before his death.
The defence argues it was the combination of this that may have killed him and not restraints which could have impaired his ability to breathe.
"Whilst it might be tragic that does certainly not mean anyone is criminally responsible for such a death," Walker's defence lawyer Callan Cassidy said.
The trial continues.
