Chances are it is coming in behind the taillights.  If there isn't an 
obvious leak at the trunk seal, then there was a TSB early in the Gen I 
Taurus life about leaks in the taillights.  REmove the taillight 
housings and you wall probably see where water has been getting in 
behind them, leaking right into the side depressions and the spare tire 
well.

Clean the gaskets and put silicone sealer on both sides and put the 
taillights on again.  Won't leak anymore.
