ZAPATA COUNTY- Authorities say there's a good chance more bodies will be found along the river and lake banks in Zapata County. They say many of them you may never hear about.

Zapata County Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez says he has no communication with mexican authorities. The boundary separating his county limits information.

"There has been a big push as far as inter-operability and information sharing, that's not really working. The information is not really exchanged." said Sheriff Gonzalez.

He says information about bodies found on the river is almost non-existent. On most crimes, deputies must talk with bad guys.

Sheriff Gonzalez says the nearest call is in Laredo. He says each time remains are found, families with lost loved ones gain hope but we may never know.
