A Queens chaplain was nabbed trying to pay an inmate for a most unholy act.
Frank DeTucci, 70, had $200 in his shoe and another $153 in his wallet when a guard at the Queensboro Correctional Facility spotted him kneeling Sunday in front of the prisoner, officials say.
When questioned, DeTucci admitted that on July 5 he paid the same inmate $120 and $150 on two separate occasions to perform oral sex on him in the chaplain's office at the minimum-security Long Island City facility.
DeTucci has been a chaplain for the state correctional system for 27 years and is a deacon at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Astoria. A church spokeswoman said he would be placed on administrative leave as soon as notified.
DeTucci faces up to four years in prison on charges that include official misconduct, engaging in a criminal sex act and sexual misconduct.
