If they found the ice by simply looking into craters from a satellite, why did they recently have to crash a probe into the surface and have another probe fly through the dust to see if there was ice there?

There is something very odd here!

Because it's not 'just' H2O they were looking for/testing.

It may look like waterice, and emit vapour of water ice; but often you need to take a taste to work out whether it is flavoured water ice :)

Used to be 30,000 year old Greenland glacier ice was considered an expensive must-have for your lemonade. Shudder to think what a Slurpee made with this would cost.
