Alleged Drug Dealing Doctor In Peru Back In Court

A little over a month away from his trial date, Dr. Constantino Perales of Peru made another appearance in La Salle County Court.

Perales and his lawyer asked Judge Cynthia Raccuglia to lower his bond amount which is at a million dollars.  According to the NewsTribune, Raccuglia denied Perales’ request after the prosecution said they have video of Perales dealing drugs at his clinic before he was arrested in late August.

Perales faces two counts of unlawful delivery of a controlled substance.  His trial is scheduled for November 18th.
