The waters of a Texas lake remain shrouded in mystery as dozens of young men’s bodies continue to be pulled from the depths, putting a community on edge as rumors of a serial killer continue to swirl. 

Last month, authorities discovered yet another man’s body in Austin’s Lady Bird Lake, bringing the total count to a whopping 38 individuals recovered from the waters since 2022. 

Officials responded to an early-morning 911 call reporting a body in the water and subsequently located the deceased man, the Austin Police Department (APD) said in a statement to Fox News Digital. 

“One common theme of the drownings in Austin [in 2023] is the combination of alcohol and easy access to Lady Bird Lake, which has numerous access points,” the department said. 

Police pointed out that the vast majority of deaths at the time occurred after the park’s closing time and encouraged community members to be mindful of local rules.  

However, as more and more victims continue to fall to the waters of Lady Bird Lake, Lieberman calls on authorities to not turn a blind eye to the morbid coincidences surrounding the deaths. 

“Unless law enforcement finds some other explanation for the large number of deaths in and around Lady Bird Lake in recent years,” Lieberman said. “Then I think that the likelihood of a serial killer cannot be ignored.”  

Fox News Digital’s Michael Ruiz contributed to this report.
