A social media influencer pleaded not guilty to rape in a Massachusetts court Thursday. The plea was entered on October 22.

At Orleans District Court on Cape Cod, the defendant entered pleas to one count each of rape, drugging someone for sexual intercourse and procuring liquor for someone under 21. The alleged incident occurred last year.

The defendant was released on $10,000 bail. The court ordered him to stay away from the alleged victim and refrain from posting about her on social media. He was also required to surrender his passport.

The criminal charges were filed on September 8, 2026.

The defendant has said that the sexual encounter was consensual.

The alleged victim also filed a civil lawsuit against the defendant in Miami in April, making claims similar to those in the criminal case.
