Crime Stoppers of Cuyahoga County is now offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information that leads to finding Cannon s remains. Chafin said it s the first time Wadsworth has worked with Crime Stoppers. It s time for this to come to a close, Chafin said. It s time to give Mr. Cannon s family their son.
