The influencer who built a following teaching men to perfect their looks faced a different kind of camera Thursday \u2014 a jail booking camera in Florida.<\/p>\n
Braden Eric Peters, 20, known online as Clavicular, was arrested Thursday on charges of misdemeanor battery and criminal conspiracy to commit battery after he instigated a fight between two women at an Airbnb he had rented and posted the video online, according<\/a> to Osceola County Sheriff\u2019s Office officials.<\/p>\n Peters was released on Friday evening after posting a $1,000 bond.<\/p>\n On Feb. 2, a 19-year-old woman reported being attacked by Violet Marie Lentz, 24, Peters\u2019 girlfriend, at an Airbnb he had rented. Detectives determined Peters had instigated the fight and posted it online to exploit the two women.<\/p>\n \u201cNeither Peters nor Lentz came out of the residence to speak to deputies about the incident when they arrived at the house to investigate,\u201d law enforcement officials said in a statement. \u201cDetectives from the Osceola Sheriff\u2019s Office completed their investigation after reviewing videos and talking with witnesses.\u201d<\/p>\n A warrant was also issued for Lentz, who remains at large, according to the Sheriff\u2019s Office. Peters was tracked down at a mansion renting for $65,000 a month, where neighbors had been complaining about loud parties.<\/p>\n Neither Peters nor Lentz could be reached for comment on Saturday.<\/p>\n Peters, who grew up in Hoboken, has spoken publicly about beginning to inject and ingest controlled substances at 14 as a socially awkward high school student.<\/p>\n He went on to build an internet following rating strangers\u2019 looks on TikTok, eventually becoming the face of the \u201clooksmaxxing\u201d subculture \u2014 a community fixated on maximizing physical attractiveness through methods ranging from structured dieting to striking one\u2019s face with a hammer in an attempt to sculpt the jawline.<\/p>\n He\u2019s since become one of the most prominent figures in the online \u201cmanosphere,\u201d a world obsessed with male dominance and physical superiority.<\/p>\n Peters has said he isn\u2019t political, but he\u2019s socialized with right-wing figures including white nationalist commentator Nick Fuentes and Andrew Tate, who has been accused of rape and human trafficking. Videos showing the three men chanting along to a Ye song titled \u201cHeil Hitler\u201d at a Miami Beach nightclub spread online earlier this year.<\/p>\n Peters later met with prominent Jewish club owners in the area and wrote<\/a> on Instagram: \u201cNo more politics, just mogging,\u201d a looksmaxxing term for outperforming someone on their looks.<\/p>\n This is Clavicular\u2019s second arrest in two months.<\/p>\n In February, he was arrested in Scottsdale, Arizona on three counts: possession of a forged instrument, using a fake ID to enter a liquor establishment, and possession of dangerous drugs \u2014 identified in court documents as Adderall and Anavar, neither of which he had a prescription for. The Maricopa County Attorney\u2019s Office said it wouldn\u2019t prosecute Peters.<\/p>\n He is also under separate investigation by Florida wildlife authorities over a video<\/a> appearing to show him firing at least 25 shots at an alligator from an airboat. In the video, Peters is heard saying \u201clet\u2019s just test really how dead it is\u201d before he and another man open fire. \u201cIt\u2019s definitely dead,\u201d he concludes before putting away his gun.<\/p>\n The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said they\u2019re \u201clooking into the incident.\u201d<\/p>\n When approached by reporters outside the jail, Peters offered no response to questions about either the fight or the alligator video.<\/p>\n Read the original article on NJ.com<\/a>.
