Leak or drainage problem in a 2006 vert

Its been raining hard in NJ and I have a new water problem. When driving, I can hear the water sloshing around the back seat. It seems like the sound is coming from the space where the rear triangular window and the belt go into. When I took the plastic cover off I could not see the water inside, despite using the flashlight inside. I looked below the rear window, the shelf is dry, so where is all that water? Is that a leak or a plugged drain? I have had water inside the trunk every time it rains as well, in both spaces on either side, left and right, under the carpet... Does anyone knows whats going on?

OK, here is an update... When I lowered the top, I could see the water inside the rear quarter panel space, in the space right in front of the wheel-well. Its right under the rear quarter panel glass, deep down. There is a drain in there that was plugged. I just took a long plastic stick from the window blind, and was able to reach the bottom of the space and moved it around, immediately the water started to drain... When I have more time, I will remove the inner trim panel to reach the space by hands in order to remove the debris...
