Dennis Saunders, a convicted peeping tom, is demanding that police return some 500 pornographic movies and 250 magazines his lawyer described as unrelated to the case and is otherwise legal material.

In March this year, Saunders, 59, filed suit against the San Rafael Police Department in Marin County Superior Court after they refused to return his massive porn collection. He is not seeking the peeping tom videos he recorded.

Saunders was recently jailed for secretly videotaping a woman and a teenage girl has filed the San Rafael, California police department.

According to AP reports, Saunders, who has a history of peeping-related arrests dating back to 1979, was arrested videotaping a 45-year-old woman and 16-year-old girl in their bedrooms and bathrooms at an apartment complex where he worked.

Police convicted him of 48 misdemeanors and sentenced him to more than eight years in jail. However, Saunders was released last month for his good behavior.

According to his lawyer, the video collection alone was likely worth at least $10,000.
