Default How to deal with tresspassers??

So to start, last night i finally had a nice 120-130 class 9pt and 2 does coming in to me. I first saw them and ranged them at 100 yards down to 50 coming right for me. At 50 all 3 heads went full alert and i was like what the heck. Then wind is in my face, me entry trail is behind me, i never moved there's no way they picked me. and just like that there gone. Needless to say was stunded at what just happened when i see movement off to my right. Here comes a neighbor guy in a bright red coat trudging right through the thickes stuff on the property. So at this point i am just boiling, he never see's me and walks right underneath my stand and which point i yell out " hey, what the fu#$ do you think your doing" his response is just going for a walk. Now a little background on this guy. He thinks he owns the property of which he does not, he thinks he can hunt it of which he can not, he used to mow trails all through out the property so he could walk it. The land owner is a good freind of mine and hates this guy with a passion and thats why i got permission to hunt this property is to keep all the neighbors off that think they own it. Well last year everytime i went there to go hunting he would be there walking his dog and would quickly sneak out the back or if i could catch him he would come up with excuses on how he has permission to be there and hunt it. When me and the land owner explained to him the he had permission for niether. We found his treestands on our property and took them down and put them in his yard for him, we plastered the property with no tresspassing signs, and we took 8ft fence post and drove them 3 feet down 8in apart on his trail that he took his lawnmower on our property. 2 days later all the fence post or gone, the no tresspassing signs are ripped off, and his treestands are back up. At this point were ferious, call the cops they come out and try explaining that he cant be doing that but have no proof so they cant do anything and just worn him. so we retake his stands down, rip the seats of them and nail no tresspassing signs to the seats and throw them back in his yard. that was all last year, this year i had not seen him again and thought that it was all behind us but low and behold here he is up to his old tricks. Not to mention the fact that he had to walk right past the gate which was open and my truck was parked 20ft inside so there is no way he didnt see i was there. so when this guy is under my treestand i call the landowner to see what he wants to do, well i had the phone on speaker phone to make sure he could here what he said and all the landowner would say is "just shoot him, im so effing sick and tired of his sh#$ just shoot the bastard. which obviously wasnt gonna happen but trying to get the point across of how pissed of he is about this. meanwhile the neighbor is coming up with all kinds of excuses for being out there, which i aint haven and am just cussing him out and telling him the laws and get the f out of there. So today the landowner is calling the dnr to see what we can do about this guy. obviously the cops talking to him isnt doing anything. and had i been thinking straight this whole time i had my camera up for videoing and i shouldve had it rolling put didnt. any tips on what to do as this is getting REALLY old.
