Former "Sopranos" actor Lillo Brancato wants out. Brancato's lawyer said yesterday he would appeal a Bronx judge's ruling denying bail to the accused cop killer. The actor has been sitting in a Rikers Island jail cell for 21/2 years and his murder case still doesn't look close to going to trial. "At least let him be home with his family," defense lawyer Joseph Tacopina said as he left court. Brancato has been in jail since December 2005, when he and friend Steven Armento were charged with murdering NYPD Officer Daniel Enchautegui, who was off duty when he tried to foil a burglary next door to his Bronx home. Brancato and Armento allegedly tried to break into a friend's apartment to get some prescription pills when Enchautegui confronted them. "He's not charged with possessing a weapon," Tacopina told Judge Steven Barrett. "He was shot that night. He didn't shoot anyone." Barrett called the bail application "fair."
