ORLEANS, Mass. (AP) — The “looksmaxxing” livestreamer Braden Peters, better known by his stage name Clavicular, is set to be arraigned Thursday in Massachusetts on charges that he raped a 17-year-old girl at his family’s Cape Cod home. A social media personality known for promoting extreme devotion to male beauty, Peters, 20, is accused of giving the girl alcohol until she was drunk and then sexually assaulting her when she visited him in Chatham, Massachusetts, in May 2025. Peters has denied the allegations through his lawyers, saying the sexual encounter was consensual. He is scheduled to be arraigned at a court in Orleans. The case is the latest legal challenge for Peters, who has a million followers on Instagram, and whose hourslong livestreams feature him rating people’s looks and talking about methods of getting better looking that include surgery and drug use. Earlier this year, he was charged with misdemeanor battery in Florida after police said he provoked a fight between two women then posted it online. That charge was later dropped. In a separate Florida case this year, he was sentenced to probation after pleading no contest to a charge that he fired a gun in public.

Hopkinton man arraigned on attempted murder charges for allegedly holding man underwater at lake

A 70-year-old Hopkinton man was arraigned Monday on an attempted murder charge for allegedly trying to drown a man at a local beach following a dispute over his use of a jet ski, records show. Steven A. Dana pleaded not guilty in Middlesex Superior Court on Monday to charges of attempted murder, strangulation or suffocation, and misdemeanor assault and battery, records show. He is due back in court on Dec. 11 for a pretrial hearing. Dana’s attorney, David J. Grimaldi, declined to comment Monday. Dana was indicted by a grand jury last month in connection with the June 3 incident at Lake Maspenock, in which he allegedly held Matthew Duffy, 21, of Milford, under the water for 10 seconds. He was arraigned in Framingham District Court and released on $7,500 bail. On Monday, Judge Michael A. Sullivan approved the transfer of Dana’s bail to the superior court case and ordered that he stay away from Duffy and the beach and not possess any weapons during his release. Prosecutor Daniel Bolcun requested the bail transfer, saying that Dana had a “limited” criminal record and noting the seriousness of the charges against him, according to a recording of the arraignment.
