Roof drain lines. They connect from the roof to the rear quarter panels. Remove the liners and you should find them there in the trunk. They either came loose, or the lines are blocked. If they came undone at the roof your interior would be wet also.

My suggestion is actually pulling out all of the carpet/boards/spare tire/jack/tools/etc and have your friend get into the trunk with a flash light. Take a hose and start to "wash" it. He should hopefully start to see where the water is leaking in and be able to source where exactly it is coming from.

GL!
