‘Looksmaxxing’ Influencer Clavicular Charged in Massachusetts with Rape and Drugging a Minor
CAPE COD, MASSACHUSETTS — Controversial social media personality Braden Peters, better known online as "Clavicular", has been formally charged with rape, drugging a person for sexual intercourse, and providing alcohol to a minor.
According to court filings obtained by news outlets, prosecutors in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, quietly lodged the criminal charges against the 20 year-old internet streamer on 8th September following an extensive police investigation.
The criminal case stems from an alleged assault that took place on 23rd May 2025 at Peters' family residence in Cape Cod, involving fellow social media creator Aleksandra Mendoza (18), known online as "Alorah Ziva".
Parallel Criminal Charges and Civil Claims
The formal criminal charges closely align with claims made in a civil lawsuit filed by Mendoza against Peters in Florida earlier this year.
According to legal documents, Mendoza who was 16 when she first met Peters, alleged that the streamer paid her $1,000 to serve as the female face of his "looksmaxxing" content. The civil filing asserts that Peters subsequently arranged for Mendoza to travel to his family home in Massachusetts, where she was provided alcohol before being sexually assaulted while intoxicated and unable to consent.
The civil suit further alleges a subsequent incident in Miami, claiming Peters administered a fat-dissolving cosmetic injection into Mendoza's face without consent, resulting in physical injury.
While Peters dismissed the civil litigation on social media as a financial ploy, public prosecutors in Massachusetts determined there was sufficient evidence to move forward with severe criminal indictments.
"Greed is evil... people try to come for your money," Peters wrote in a recent post addressing the allegations prior to the unsealing of the criminal docket.
Rise of the ‘Looksmaxxing’ Subculture
Peters amassed a substantial following across platforms including X, YouTube, and Kick by positioning himself as a leading figure in "looksmaxxing", an online subculture primarily aimed at young men that promotes extreme physical transformation.
His content frequently sparked intense controversy, featuring dangerous stunts, bone-smashing tutorials, unlicensed cosmetic procedures, and erratic livestreams.
The criminal indictment in Massachusetts marks the latest in a string of legal troubles for the 20-year-old streamer across multiple US states over the past year, following prior arrests in Arizona for fake identification and criminal firearm charges in Florida.
October Arraignment Set
Despite the formal filing of charges, court records indicate Peters has not yet been taken into police custody. A representative for the streamer claimed he has not been formally served with an arrest warrant, though court dockets confirm he is officially scheduled for formal arraignment on 14th October 2026.
If convicted on the lead felony charge of rape, Peters faces up to 20 years in state prison alongside mandatory registration as a sex offender under US law.
