I haven't heard the attorney communicate that the anonymous party was sorry about the trees and the whole affair.

Certainly it appears that the perpetrator(s) (Friends of Lake Miona-- ha, you couldn't make this stuff up) came forward only when it looked like pressure from the POA and this website might cause the sheriff to actually conduct a thorough investigation of the crime or neighbors to come forward with information. Furthermore, it is very likely that the perpetrator(s) are reading and perhaps participating in this thread, which may explain the some of the efforts to cut off discussion. There are certainly a lot of unanswered questions in this matter, such as what, exactly, is the deal between the attorney for the perpetrators and the prosecutor? In a community with a real newspaper, this would all be reported.
