• Braden Peters, known as Clavicular, charged with multiple felonies, including rape and drugging a minor.
• The alleged crime occurred on May 23, 2025, at Peters’ family home in Cape Cod.
• The charges were filed after a civil lawsuit was brought against Peters by the same victim.

Braden Peters, a 20-year-old social media influencer popularly known as "Clavicular," has been charged with rape and drugging a minor in Massachusetts. The allegations stem from an incident involving a 17-year-old girl who reported becoming heavily intoxicated after consuming alcohol provided by Peters at his family home in Chatham, Massachusetts, according to court records from CBS News, NPR, and SCMP.

The charges against Peters, filed on September 8, include rape, administering a substance for sexual intercourse, and providing alcohol to someone under 21. The incidents allegedly occurred on May 23, 2025, after the victim arrived at Peters’ residence under the pretext of participating in his livestreams, as detailed in court documents outlined by NPR and SCMP.

The victim reported to authorities that she had been instructed by Peters to misrepresent her age while streaming and that he pressured her to consume alcohol, which led to her becoming noticeably intoxicated. Following the livestream, she alleged that the two kissed and later had non-consensual sex in his bedroom. She did not undergo a sexual assault forensic exam after the incident, according to reports by CBS News and SCMP.

This alleged assault overlaps with a civil lawsuit filed by the same victim earlier this year, where Peters was accused of injecting her with an unapproved substance during a livestream and other non-consensual sexual acts. The lawsuit has been characterized as lacking evidence of sexual assault initially, a claim Peters' representatives have criticized as manipulative, according to NPR and SCMP.

Peters, who has faced previous legal issues, including a battery charge in Florida, is scheduled to be arraigned on October 14. His legal troubles have garnered widespread media attention, which also include accusations related to illegal firearms and controversies regarding the looksmaxxing culture he represents. His representative has publicly denied all allegations, calling them attempts to garner publicity, as reported by CBS News, NPR, and SCMP.
