MIAMI, FL — A teenage girl filed a lawsuit in Miami-Dade against the streamer known as Clavicular, alleging battery, fraud and the unauthorized publication of her likeness.
Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza, 18, who uses the name Alorah Ziva, is seeking damages in excess of $50,000 from Braden Eric Peters. The legal filing describes a pattern of predatory behavior and unlicensed medical activity, according to NBC6 Miami.
According to reports by The Boston Globe, the lawsuit alleges that in 2025, when Mendoza was 16, Peters paid her $1,000 to record videos. Peters reportedly told Mendoza he wanted her to become the female face for looksmaxxing.
Looksmaxxing is an online subculture where individuals attempt to optimize their physical appearance through grooming and fitness. Peters is a prominent figure in this predominantly male community.
The suit claims Peters helped Mendoza write scripts and produce four videos. During this period, the filing alleges Peters paid for a vehicle to transport Mendoza to his parents’ home in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
The lawsuit alleges that excessive amounts of alcohol were served at the residence. Peters allegedly served Mendoza vodka until she became intoxicated to the point that she could not provide consent for sexual activity.
The suit claims Peters had sex with the intoxicated minor and then sent her away in an Uber. The filing states that Peters did not see Mendoza for another six months following that event.
In Nov. 2025, Mendoza was attending a networking event in Miami when she encountered Peters again. Peters reportedly remarked on her appearance and invited her group to a streaming session.
The group entered Peters’ Cybertruck believing the destination was nearby. Instead, Peters began driving toward Delray Beach, about 50 miles north of Miami, the lawsuit states.
Along the way, the vehicle stopped at a charging station. The lawsuit alleges Peters and his associates consumed a white powdery substance and offered it to Mendoza, who refused.
Upon arrival at the destination, Peters allegedly attempted to kiss and seduce Mendoza. The lawsuit states she rejected his advances before they moved to a bedroom to begin a live broadcast.
During the livestream, Peters reportedly told viewers he wanted to inject Mendoza with Aqualyx to dissolve fat in her cheeks. The suit claims Peters injected her multiple times in both cheeks.
Peters is not licensed to perform medical injections. The lawsuit states he did not tell Mendoza that Aqualyx is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for injectable fat-dissolving use.
The filing alleges that during the video, Peters stated or suggested that methamphetamine had been added to the injection mixture. Mendoza claims she did not know the risks associated with the procedure.
Following this encounter, the two saw each other several more times. The suit alleges Peters paid bouncers to allow the underage Mendoza into bars and purchased alcoholic beverages for her.
In early 2026, Mendoza signed a contract worth $15,000 a month to work as a social media promoter for a trading platform. The lawsuit alleges Peters then started a campaign to discredit her.
Mendoza claims this activity caused her to lose her sponsorships and professional income. The counts in the lawsuit include battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and fraud.
Peters, 20, has gained notoriety for promoting extreme looksmaxxing methods. These include bone smashing, a practice where people use hammers to break facial bones so they heal in a different shape.
As per The Boston Globe, Steve Kramer, an attorney for Peters, released a statement denying the claims. Kramer stated that the allegations remain unproven and that Peters will respond through appropriate legal channels.
Kramer said Peters disputes the characterization of events provided in the lawsuit and intends to defend himself. The attorney declined to provide further comment on the specific allegations of battery.
This legal action follows other recent incidents involving the influencer. Peters was arrested in Fort Lauderdale last month on battery charges, as reported by The Boston Globe.
That arrest involved a 19-year-old woman who accused a 24-year-old woman of battery at a home rented by Peters. Law enforcement officials took Peters into custody following the report.
Earlier this month, a representative for Peters stated the influencer was hospitalized in Miami. The representative said the hospitalization was due to a suspected drug overdose.
The lawsuit filed by Mendoza remains in the early stages of litigation in Miami-Dade. No trial date has been scheduled for the battery or fraud claims.
Mendoza continues to work as an influencer under her brand name. Her attorneys are seeking a jury trial to determine the total amount of damages Peters may owe.
Court records show that the case has been assigned to the civil division. Peters is expected to file a formal response to the complaint within 20 days.
Presumption of Innocence: A presumption of innocence means that any defendant in a criminal trial is presumed to be innocent until they have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. The defendant in this case is only accused of the charges set forth in the criminal complaint. They are innocent until proven guilty.
