SunStar + January 20, 2021 FAUSTO Edgar Peralta, alleged triggerman of slain lawyer Joey Luis Wee, opted to be silent during the reading of the murder charge filed against him by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) 7 during the virtual arraignment on Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2021. Lawyer Wenceslao Galendez, one of the NBI 7 agents who handled the Wee case, said Peralta did not enter a plea during the arraignment, which led the court to enter a plea of not guilty for Peralta. Galendez, however, doubted that Peralta, accompanied by his legal counsel, had other intentions of being silent during the proceedings, saying it could just be part of the strategy of Peralta’s party.
