Clavicular rape charges

True crime · Heat 1.2 / 10 · 2 shows · 43m airtime

A criminal complaint issued in Chatham, Massachusetts on September 8, 2026, charging Brayden Peters, known as Clavicular, with rape, administering a substance for sexual intercourse, and procuring alcohol for a minor over an alleged May 23, 2025 encounter with a 17-year-old influencer. The accuser is Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza, also known as Alora, whose separate suit alleges an unapproved Aqualix cheek injection on a KICK livestream perforated her cheek. Peters pleaded not guilty, was released on $10,000 bail, and is due back November 24 for a probable cause hearing. Bail bars him from posting about the accuser in any way, and his attorneys now include the communications in filings.
