Clavicular, the controversial 'looksmaxxing' influencer, showed up to court this week with his dog in tow to plead not guilty to felony rape charges.
On Thursday (October 22), as reported by BBC News, Clavicular (real name Braden Peters) showed up for his arraignment on felony rape, drugging an individual for sexual intercourse, and procuring liquor for someone under the age of 21 charges.
He has been accused of drugging and raping 18-year-old influencer Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza when she was 17 at his parents' home in Massachusetts. She filed a civil suit against him in Miami last year, accusing him of sexual battery in connection with the alleged May 2025 incident.
His bail was set at $10,000 at his arraignment on Thursday, which he immediately posted, and he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Clavicular has denied the allegations against him and claimed the alleged incident was consensual. As part of his bail conditions, he has been ordered to surrender his passport and not contact or post about his accuser. Last month, he made posts about his accuser on social media, describing her lawsuit as "really petty" and sharing alleged text messages from her.
According to TMZ, the Kick streamer and online personality showed up to the Orleans District Court in Massachusetts on Thursday walking a dog on a leash. Sources close to his team said the white dog is named Morris and is a rescue from the Agora Hills Animal Shelter. The dog reportedly refused to leave his side and so Clavicular made a last-second decision to bring him along. The dog wasn't allowed into the courtroom, however, but someone from the streamer's team took him to a nearby Starbucks for a pup cup.
In the lawsuit, which Mendoza refiled earlier this year after dropping her sexual battery accusations to avoid interfering with the felony charges, she alleges she met Clavicular when she was 16. She also alleges that he injected non-FDA-approved fat-dissolving injections into her face without her consent.
