A California man who was recently busted for secretly videotaping women is suing cops for the return of his porn collection, which they seized during their investigation.

Dennis Saunders, 59, filed the suit after cops refused to return his 500 porno movies and 250 magazines. His lawyer insists the carnal collection has nothing to do with the case.

Saunders was arrested for taping women at the apartment complex in San Rafael where he worked.
