"Mason's journey began with an Advocate article detailing the gruesome murder of Billy London, whose dismembered body parts were found in a dumpster. The lack of mainstream coverage left many unaware of the case, highlighting the media's neglect of stories involving marginalized communities."

Rachel Mason, while making her documentary Circus of Books, discovered an article about the unsolved murder of gay porn star Billy London.
