Clavicular Charged With Rape in Massachusetts
The Hollywood Reporter • • general
Key Points:
- Influencer and streamer Braden Peters, known as Clavicular, has been charged in Massachusetts with rape, drugging a person for sex, and providing alcohol to a minor, related to an incident on May 23, 2025; his arraignment is scheduled for October 14.
- The charges align with a civil lawsuit filed in Florida by Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza, who alleges Peters injected her with an unapproved fat-dissolving substance without consent and engaged in nonconsensual sexual encounters while she was intoxicated and a minor.
- Peters has denied the allegations, sharing posts and videos on social media that suggest Mendoza was consenting and disputing the lawsuit's claims, while his representative accused media outlets of exaggerating the case status.
- If convicted, Peters could face up to 20 years in prison for the rape charge; this follows a previous charge in April for unlawfully discharging a firearm after shooting an alligator in the Florida Everglades, which his lawyer defended as following a licensed guide's instructions.
