One alleged incident happened at around 9 a.m. on July 5, the sources said. The second occurred Sunday, at which time he was arrested by State Police, they added. DeTucci was hired by the state Department of Corrections in 1992. He is charged with criminal sex act, attempted criminal sex act, sexual misconduct, attempted sexual misconduct and official misconduct, said a spokeswoman for Queens DA Richard Brown. DeTucci, who lives in Astoria, is paid $79,819 a year to perform priestly duties at the prison. He has been put on leave without pay, said a prison spokeswoman. DeTucci, who also serves as a deacon at the Our Lady of Mount Carmel RC Church in Astoria, could not be reached for comment.
