1 hour ago 2

“Looksmaxxing” influencer Clavicular has been arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery and criminal conspiracy to commit battery in Florida, Page Six can confirm.

The controversial influencer, whose real name is Braden Eric Peters, was arrested in Fort Lauderdale on Thursday, per a press release obtained from the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.

His charges stem from an active warrant out of Osceola County, and officials with the Fort Lauderdale Police Department assisted in finding Peters, 20, on Thursday night.

According to the press release, Osceola County deputies responded to an Airbnb near Kissimmee in reference to a battery shortly after 4 a.m. on Feb. 2.

An unnamed 19-year-old woman told deputies she had allegedly been battered by Violet Marie Lentz, 24. However, detectives determined that Clavicular “instigated the fight” and “posted it on social media to exploit the two women,” per the press release.

The alleged incident was said to have occurred inside a property rented by Clavicular, and the victim was reportedly battered by Lentz during a physical altercation.

Neither the embattled influencer nor Lentz stepped outside to speak with the deputies about the incident.

A warrant was ultimately issued for Clavicular’s arrest for misdemeanor battery and criminal conspiracy to commit battery, and he was taken into custody and booked into the Broward County Jail on Thursday.

While a warrant was also issued for Lentz’s arrest for misdemeanor battery, detectives are still reportedly looking for the 24-year-old.

Clavicular did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The incel-ebrity, meanwhile, is also said to be under investigation for a separate incident involving his alleged shooting of a dead alligator in the Everglades.

That alleged incident reportedly unfolded as the controversial influencer was livestreaming while traveling through the Everglades via airboat.

“The FWC is aware of a video depicting individuals in the Everglades on an airboat who appear to be discharging firearms at an alligator,” the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission wrote on X Thursday.

The commission continued, “FWC officers are continuing to look into the incident and will provide additional information when available.”

Florida Lieutenant Governor Jay Collins also took to X on Thursday to address the suspected alligator incident.

“FWC is investigating and I have full confidence in their officers,” he tweeted. “Florida’s wildlife and waterways deserve respect, not content farming.”

Collins added, “Under my watch, anyone who abuses wildlife in Florida will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Looking forward to seeing charges pressed against those who would brazenly disrespect our laws.”

Clavicular first gained an online following in 2025 for content focused on “looksmaxxing,” which is the process of maximizing one’s physical attractiveness. 

He broadcasts much of his content on the streaming platform Kick, and Page Six exclusively reported that the incel-ebrity was attacked after being booted from a New York Fashion Week party last month.
