Internet personality Braden Peters, who goes by the online handle Clavicular, has been charged with rape and drugging a minor in Massachusetts. The allegations stem from an incident in May 2025 at his family's mansion in Chatham, Cape Cod.

According to a criminal complaint filed in Massachusetts, Peters, known for his involvement in the 'looksmaxxing' online community, allegedly livestreamed an interaction where he instructed the underage victim to claim she was 18 years old. The complaint further details that the woman allegedly fell asleep at Peters' family home and woke up to find him having sex with her.

Peters' mother reportedly expressed shock upon learning of the allegations. The criminal complaint noted that the accuser was ordered an Uber to Peters' family residence, where she met his mother and grandmother.

A representative for Peters issued a statement to the Daily Mail denying all allegations. On the social media platform X, Peters claimed the accuser was attempting to gain his attention and extort money from him.

Peters gained significant online traction, amassing a combined following of one million across platforms like TikTok and Instagram. He also ventured into mainstream modeling, walking in international Fashion Weeks. His online persona and influence grew rapidly within the niche 'looksmaxxing' community before expanding to a wider audience.

The incident allegedly occurred following a period where Peters was reportedly drinking at his family's coastal mansion. The accuser reportedly fell asleep and woke to the assault. Peters' family home in Chatham is valued at approximately $1.71 million.
