In 2014, Kari Rhinehart, a nurse from Franklin, Indiana, received a call at work about her daughter, Emma Grace Findley. Doctors found signs of swelling during the 13-year-old's annual eye exam and said she needed further tests. She was taken to the same emergency room where Rhinehart worked and prepared for an MRI. When a technician returned to inject more dye, Rhinehart held her daughter's hand as she lay inside the machine and began to cry silently. She knew Emma Grace had a brain tumor. It turned out to be glioblastoma multiforme, rare cancer most common in adults over 50. Just three months after her diagnosis, a week before Christmas, Emma Grace died in her mother's arms at home.

Rhinehart learned that the area near her home was contaminated with trichloroethylene after local news station WTHR discovered that many children in her community were developing abnormal cancers. Although the Environmental Protection Bureau has investigated these sites, government-ordered tests have shown that they are still polluting the air and groundwater. Parents are demanding action from the government. Authorities reopened an investigation and ordered a new cleanup, including replacing thousands of feet of sewer. (Because the causes of most childhood cancers have not been scientifically proven, there is no direct link between childhood cancer cases and TCE.)
