Yup, all they need is a suspicion and a judge to sign the search
warrant. It's called Property Forfeiture and the upshot is the target
doesn't need to be convicted, or even charged.
Last week I was reading about the Saginaw County (MI) got the judge to
sign a search warrant for a home in another county. Google is your
friend: They can confiscate your property, sell it, and keep the money!
There has been a lot of abuse of that ability.
Here's one instance where the sheriff may have overstepped ...

As to the attractive nuisance: The court might let you off even if
someone's kid gets hurt, or worse. However, you can sue for almost
anything, unless the suit is found frivolous. Your neighbor can sue you
for ruining his veiw with that monstrous antenna and that has happened.

No matter what you do, Judge Robarts will rule that the illegal climber has a
Constitutional right to trespass and climb your tower.
He will be upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. You don't have the
authority to keep trespassers from climbing your tower and, you have not cited
any examples that show that people who did not climb were not injured!
