Transcript

Houston's bayous, well, they keep their secrets.

More than 200 bodies have been pulled from these waterways, over 35 this year alone.

Some cases point to accidents, drownings.

Others aren't that simple.

Police say the cases aren't linked.

No serial suspect.

No single cause.

Just a bayou with too many unanswered deaths.
