Please help spread the word. The more people who know, the sooner he will be located!!!!

I pray that they find him soon and that he is safe. Can't imagine why he went off without a coat Friday when it was so cold out.

How can you not know who your disabled child left with?

Perhaps because he is 21, and despite having cerebral palsy, is asserting his independence? Sheesh. Having cerebral palsy does not imply that he does not have "normal" (or even above average) intelligence. He probably just wanted to be a "normal" 21 year old. I hope that he returns home safely to his family, who are obviously worried about him.

Do we know anything about whether his friends were driving or he was driving? It seems a little odd to me that he went in a normal car with his wheelchair. They are heavy and usually need a car with wheelchair access.

As the parent of a 25 year old with cp, something is wrong here. Very wrong. God i hope he is found. Independence is one thing.. unless you parent a child with cp to this degree, you don't know. @S. No offense but it has nothing to do with intelligence.

In fact, since my son is extremely intelligent, he knows that it is imperative that someone knows where he is and is available should the chair malfunction or a hygiene issue occurs. God i pray this kid is found safely.

Is it possible that he could have left while he was home alone for a bit, so that is why his family had no knowledge of who he left with? Obviously this family is in pain with worry, passing judgement without all the facts is just cruel.

I too really cannot understand how the parents of a disabled child do not know who the individules are that he left with... very odd. I have an adult autistic brother and there is no way he would leave with anyone that our family knew nothing about especially their name or names. Something doesnt add up here. I pray he is ok and returns home safe soon....

Jms you said it beautifully. Passing judgement in a public post without firsthand knowledge and facts is cruel, and it's ignorant. The fact that this young man is missing is the issue. Period. Be supportive, spread the word, offer a positive comment, offer a prayer. Otherwise, keep it to yourself.

Corey is extremely independent and has even gone to college (SIU) by himself. This is a good family. Roxanne, Corey's mother, is a wonderful Christian woman who raised her boys as a single mother. Before you judge, you should try and walk in someone elses shoes. Until then, cut the judgment & do whatever is in your power (share on social media, print and distribute fliers, pray) to help find this beautiful soul.

I concur as well. The main issue is that Corey is missing, not about the family. Please let's keep our speculation out of it and just focus on finding him.
Hoping to hear back from the Plano PD soon and will hopefully have some more information.

PEOPLE... STOP JUDGING AND START LOVING, BLAMING THE PARENTS IS WRONG, EVEN IF THEY KNEW IT MAY NOT HAVE CHANGED A THING. NO ONE WANTS A LOVED ONE MISSING THEY ARE IN ENOUGH PAIN.

People are always so quick to assume or judge.just shut up and pray for this young man and his family. Pray he is safe and share his story with everyone you know. I have.

Praying for Corey's safe return. Roxanne is my cousin and I can tell you her kids come first and this is killing her I'm sure.

What about kidnapping plain and simple!! His need to be accepted for who he is makes him extremely vulnerable to anyone at anytime. He can't even fight anyone off so the fact that he is missing without a cost or shoes tells me he didn't leave willingly!! He was taken and he needs to be found period! Him and his brother went to school with my kids and his mom is one of my best friends. As a parent you do your best and hope for the best. I am praying for Corey's safe return home!! Love you Cann family <3

Let's all be supportive of - and in prayer for - Corey, Roxanne and the rest of the family. The Cann family is well thought of in this community and I'm sure they must be sick with worry whether Corey went somewhere willingly or not! In the meantime, Let's keep reposting reminders in Facebook and any other media. If somebody has info PLEASE contact the police. SOMEBODY knows where Corey is right now. And Corey, if you're reading this, please call your mother - everyone is worried about you.

Plz lets not judge anyone...lets find this loved one...GOD HELP US...IN JESUS NAME...AMEN

I hope he is found soon and puts your minds and hearts to rest. Periodically check with Medicare and Medicaid to see if anyone has "hijacked" him in to an institutional setting by telling him they were going to enable his independence. As a parent myself I know how difficult it is when your children are this age. You want to enable them as much as possible while still providing the support system they need. I pray your son gets in touch with you soon. Best Wishes!!

According to the Facebook page "Find Corey Cann" this is now believed to be a kidnapping. Someone saw him in his wheelchair in the back of a speeding, large tan truck headed for Rt 34. If this is accurate he could be anyplace by now. So please help the family by sharing this information with your media friends so people can be on the lookout for him.

Hi I am praying for this to be all figured out soon so the family (including Corey) may be relieved. But for now I assume the family is taking on search missions. I understand its very cold in Illinois and it is a long shot but maybe it would be a good idea to search the nearby creeks and rivers (why would he be there especially without shoes?; it's in my understanding that he is most likely under the influence of other individuals whom the family has never met before, and by those individuals not introducing themselves to the family it seems like there might be foul play afoot). Also, tomorrow morning Mrs. Roxanne should speak with the students of the school (rather than the police, a mother's instinct is best) he attends and question if they have seen him with any new characters that they aren't familiar with him being around (trust me people notice who people are hanging-out with, and if these are students from his school where they most likely met; someone would have noticed). A few other areas to check would be the parks (a creek runs right by Foli Park). I can only hope some kids have them at their pad doing what 21 year old do...

Prayers for his safe return.

If someone really did see a young man, in a wheelchair in the back of a pick-up truck, why in the world wouldn't they have immediately called the Police? My prayers are with the family, and with Corey for a safe return.

I'm surprised this hasn't been covered by the larger media outlets (Chicago news, etc.). I only saw it on Facebook. Praying for his speedy and safe return.

This breaks our hearts! We pray for Corey's safe return and for his family to have strength thru all of this.

I've known Corey since 8th grade, we chatted and even had a few classes together. Whether he was kidnapped or just missing the fact is he is out there and he needs help. He's such a joy to be around! We haven't talked in years but man have I been praying and sharing for a safe return! Help Brin Corey home, don't try to knit pick at the parenting. How would you feel if your child or family member was missing!

He is a amazing,caring person i had classes with him its sad to hear about this. Him and his family are in my prayers!!!

To all of those passing judgement regarding this situation, stop! I do not know the family, nor do i live in the general area. I do know that at a time like this, questioning and judging that family will not help. Put your energy to good use, get out and help look for him. If this is not possible, say a prayer for him. Practice kindness if nothing else.

First let me clarify I was not judging. I never stated anything except the young man is disabled. I didn't say he was unintelligent. All i was asking is how can you not know where someone is that is in a wheel chair, for safety reasons only. As a mother myself I keep tabs on everyone. I wasn't bashing anyone, just trying to help uncover any ideas to help find him. You people on here rush to judgement.

I pray comfort and peace for the family, and also for Corey right now,,, and for his safe and speedy return. Let's all pray special angels be with him right now. Amen!

Praying for Corey's safe return! Glad this has made the major news outlets.

Praying for Corey's return here in Minooka il.

I'm praying for Corey. May God protect him and bring him home quickly and safely. To Corey's family... May God surround all of you with peace that passes all understanding.

So sad. My prayers and positive thoughts being sent. I pray for Corey's safe return. I pray hid mother doesn't blame herself and I pray for all these ppl posting neg comments

"hey everybody. Great news! Corey is safe! we want to thank EVERYONE for their time, concern and care. The family is talking to the police right now."
