Devastated wife of alleged Etan Patz killer is ‘done’ with him: relatives

She wants nothing more to do with him.

The shattered wife of the man who confessed to killing 6-year-old Etan Patz last week says their marriage is over, relatives told The Post yesterday.

“Rosemary is done. Done, done,” said Emeterio Hernandez, a brother of slay suspect Pedro Hernandez and brother-in-law to Pedro’s wife, Rosemary.

Emeterio said his sister-in-law knew nothing of her husband’s alleged heinous past and that the couple’s relationship “has been over since she found this out’’ Wednesday, when cops came to bust her husband at their Camden, NJ, home.

“She is devastated because they have been together so long. She cares about him,” Emeterio said of Rosemary, who has a 23-year-old daughter with Pedro.

A brother-in-law of Pedro’s had recently put him on cops’ radar in the 33-year-old Patz case, and investigators said Pedro confessed to abducting and strangling Etan under questioning.

Pedro was a 19-year-old stock clerk at a bodega across the street from Etan’s bus stop when he allegedly lured the child into the shop with the promise of a cold soda on the morning of May 25, 1979.

Pedro, 51, and Emeterio, 60, are two of 12 siblings, and Emeterio’s wife, Gloria, is sisters with Pedro’s second, current wife, Rosemary.

“They met at our wedding,” Emeterio said.

Rosemary and Pedro’s college-student daughter, Becky, had come to Manhattan for a planned court arraignment Friday for Pedro, who is charged with second-degree murder.

But the arraignment wound up being held in Bellevue Hospital, where Pedro was on suicide watch and being treated for HIV — and the two women haven’t been seen since.

The Rev. George Bowen — pastor at the church that Pedro regularly attended with Rosemary, Becky and Gloria — yesterday described Rosemary as “shell-shocked’’ and said “she hasn’t seen or talked to her husband’’ since his arrest.

Becky also has been rocked by the news about her father, said Emeterio, who vowed to become a father figure to the young woman now that her dad is behind bars.

“She wants to be a teacher, I’ll help her with school. I’ll walk her down the aisle,” he said.

Emeterio said he hasn’t spoken to his brother in years but knew he had mental problems.

But “if he is guilty, he should be held responsible,” he said.

Bowen, speaking about the arrest during his Sunday sermon told congregants at Maranatha Christian Fellowship in Moorestown, NJ, that “Rosemary and daughter Becky are completely emotionally devastated.’’

After services, he said, “My impression is that this came out of left field for them. There’s no way this woman knew.”

But “she has her wits about her,’’ the pastor said.
