That is it in a nutshell
I cannot think of anyone gaining anything at all by hiding real knowledge of what happened. Maybe someone witnessed it or heard it but they don't know for sure which person, or how many were involved. Maybe the people who are behind this are very intimidating and the person who heard something is timid. There are all kinds of neighborhood dynamics that might be at play. Being awfully sure and testifying that you are completely sure are two separate things.
When our older daughter was here, we spent several hours by the pool in our backyard. That afternoon there was a lawn cutting service who was working on several lawns nearby. Their machines were so noisy, and some sounded like buzzsaws. I think that it is entirely possible that the noise could have been overlooked as lawn maintenance. The homes are large and widely spaced and have a lot of side yard landscaping that screens the backyards from view of the street. The trees were removed from an area way to the back and completely off their property. The streets wind around there and the view of it happening may have been obscured by how the homes are placed. It isn't a new straight street like many of us live on with new landscaping that people can see across several yards.
I don't know. I didn't do it, don't know who did it. I think they should pay, and maybe will eventually.
