We have had some intrusions in the past and have done (at a cost) some
security measures such as PrikaStrip and GuardCam. These reccommendations
were given to us from the police and we have bought the products and
installed them.
All of that has not stopped a certain indivdual from using our garden as a
shortcut to his parents house when he has had a taste of beer and heaven
knows what else.
Thinking I was within the law I put a bit of barbed wire in his way in MY
garden betweem the Prika Striped fences. There is no way in or out unless
your intentions are criminal.
He got a bit entangled, snagged his body and clothing, and I have an ASBO
for my efforts. He rang his parents and they knew or at least thought they
knew where he was.
The GuardCam worked against me in this case because I had the cheek to
protect my property.

Well at least you won't get called up for jury service now you have a
criminal record. :-)
Bit harsh though, for just putting barbed wire up on ones own property, if
it's considered that anti social why is it allowed to be sold. Did you ask
the Court what you should have done instead? They would probably say call
the Police, so you waste a phone call. I trust the other party, the
trespasser, got a similar ASBO?

An ASBO is issued by a police officer. No courts...Yet.
And you are right I should have called police.
The trespasser has not committed a crime, strange but true. No damage I can
find, as tempting as it is.
This is just another lesson I need to learn.
Provide PPE for intruders and a first aid box just in case the little
darlings hurt themselves on my property. Just imagine what might have
happened if I caught him red handed.(shudder)
