A controversial online influencer known as Clavicular has been arrested in Florida on a battery charge. The individual, identified as Braden Eric Peters, was taken into custody in Fort Lauderdale following an investigation into an incident that occurred last month.
According to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, Peters is accused of instigating a physical altercation between two women at a residence he rented and later sharing footage of the incident online. A 19-year-old woman reported being assaulted during the confrontation.
Authorities say Peters and another suspect, Violet Marie Lentz, did not cooperate when deputies arrived at the scene. Arrest warrants were later issued for both individuals on charges including misdemeanour battery and conspiracy to commit battery. Lentz remains at large.
Peters was released after posting bond, but investigations are ongoing.
In a separate development, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has launched a probe into a video showing an alligator being shot at in the Florida Everglades. Peters is reportedly seen in the footage, though it is unclear if the cases are connected.
Clavicular is known for promoting “looksmaxxing,” an online trend focused on enhancing physical appearance, often through extreme or controversial methods. The movement has gained traction among certain online communities, raising concerns about its influence and impact.
