Looksmaxxing influencer Clavicular charged in Massachusetts

Braden Peters, the 20-year-old looksmaxxing influencer known as Clavicular, has been charged in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, with one count each of assault, drugging a person for sex, and providing alcohol to a minor, according to court records. Prosecutors filed the charges at a Cape Cod courthouse on September 8, 2026, and arraignment is set for October 14, 2026. The charges are connected to an alleged incident on May 23, 2025. The assault count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years if convicted. The criminal complaint does not name the alleged victim, in line with Massachusetts laws regarding sexual violence, and authorities have not released extensive details about what prosecutors allege occurred. The criminal case appears to parallel a civil lawsuit filed in April 2026 in Miami-Dade County, Florida, by Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza, an 18-year-old content creator known online as Alorah Ziva. Mendoza accused Peters of battery, fraud, emotional distress, and sexual misconduct stemming from an alleged encounter at his family home in Cape Cod in May 2025.
