AN NYPD detective is accused of torching her police officer husband’s closet and clothes in their Nassau County home Tuesday, law enforcemen­t sources said.

Marissa Sorocco, 37, a detective assigned to NYPD headquarte­rs in lower Manhattan, was busted Tuesday morning and suspended without pay, sources said.

Sorocco lives with her husband, Paul, a Nassau County cop, in Plainview, public records show.

Fire department officials there said they responded to a closet fire at her home just after 10:15 a.m., though the blaze was largely extinguish­ed when they arrived.

Firefighte­rs found smoldering clothes, no structural damage and no one injured. Nassau County police would not provide informatio­n on Sorocco’s arrest.
