Clavicular Video Injecting His 17-Year-Old Girlfriend Resurfaces as Influencer Faces Rape and Drugging Charges

A video of 'looksmaxxing' streamer Clavicular injecting his accuser on camera has resurfaced online just as he faces criminal rape and drugging charges in Massachusetts.

Braden Eric Peters, 20, who built a following of more than a million people under the name Clavicular, was charged this month with rape, drugging a person for sexual intercourse and procuring alcohol for a person under 21.

He is not in custody and is scheduled for arraignment on 14 October. The charges were filed months after a separate civil lawsuit was brought against him and have renewed attention on an earlier clip showing him administering facial injections to Mendoza.

Criminal Charges Filed in Orleans District Court

Court records show Peters faces two felony charges and one misdemeanour. The rape count carries the statutory citation c265 §22(b), the charge of administering a drug for sexual intercourse falls under c272 §3, and the alcohol-related offence is a misdemeanour, according to filings first reported by The Bulwark.

The case was filed in Orleans District Court on 8 September after a judge found probable cause for all three charges. A rape conviction could carry up to 20 years in prison, while a conviction on the rape or drugging charge could result in sex-offender registration.

The alleged incident occurred on Cape Cod on 23 May 2025. The accuser was 17 at the time, but Massachusetts sets the age of consent at 16, meaning the rape allegation is not based solely on her age and instead centres on whether she was capable of consenting.

The Cape Cod Allegations and the Injection Video

The criminal charges concern an alleged incident on Cape Cod, while the accuser has separately filed a civil suit in Florida over allegations involving Peters.

In that complaint, fellow influencer Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza, who posts online as Alorah Ziva, accuses Peters of plying her with alcohol before a non-consensual sexual encounter at his parents' Cape Cod home.

Mendoza says she met Peters online at 16, and that he paid her $1,000 to film 'looksmaxxing' videos before inviting her to the Cape Cod property in May 2025. The pair reportedly did not speak again for several months, until Mendoza ran into Peters in Miami and he invited her to a livestreaming session.

During that later livestream in November 2025, Peters allegedly injected Mendoza's cheeks with Aqualyx, a fat-dissolving treatment, according to her civil complaint. The lawsuit alleges Peters was not licensed to administer injections and that he stated or suggested the injection mixture contained methamphetamine.

Footage from that session, showing Peters injecting Mendoza to reshape her jaw, is understood to be the clip now recirculating on social media. Mendoza's civil complaint says she appeared drugged on camera and alleges that the injection damaged her cheek.

She has said she woke the following morning to find him assaulting her again. Mendoza's civil complaint, filed in Miami-Dade County, accuses Peters of battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraud and unauthorised publication of her name and likeness.

Peters Denies the Allegations as Scrutiny Mounts

A spokesperson for Peters, Mitchell Jackson, said in a statement that the accuser's original lawsuit did not include sexual assault as a count. Earlier this year, a lawyer for Peters told Rolling Stone that the influencer denies the claims and disputes the characterisation of events.

The charges landed days after 'looksmaxxing', the term associated with extreme efforts to alter one's appearance, was added to the Merriam-Webster dictionary.

By February 2026, according to the New York Times' Joseph Bernstein, Peters was earning more than $100,000 a month from his Kick livestreams, where he retains nearly 430,000 followers, alongside 1.1 million on TikTok.

This is not his first legal proceeding. In April 2026, Peters was charged in Florida with unlawfully discharging a firearm after a livestream showed him firing at an alligator in the Everglades. He later pleaded no contest to the misdemeanour charge and received six months' probation and 20 hours of community service, with adjudication withheld.

His attorney has not commented publicly on the new criminal charges since they were filed, and Peters' representatives did not respond to further requests for comment cited in coverage of the case. His publicist declined to comment when approached by The Bulwark.

Peters is scheduled to appear in Orleans District Court on 14 October. He has denied the allegations.
