Barret Robbins, the former center for the Oakland Raiders known for his tumultuous career both on and off the field, has passed away at the age of 52.

Robbins dedicated nine seasons to the NFL, exclusively with the Raiders, after being drafted from Texas Christian University (TCU) in 1995.

Renowned for his performance, the Pro Bowl athlete played in 121 games during his career. However, he is perhaps most remembered for being absent during the lead-up to the 2003 Super Bowl, an incident that led to him being barred from participating in the game.

In a heartfelt statement, the Raiders expressed their sorrow: “The Raiders family is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Barret Robbins. Our thoughts and condolences are with Barret’s family and friends during this challenging time.”

News of Robbins’ passing was initially shared by his former teammate, Tim Brown, via social media on Thursday night. Brown relayed a message from Robbins’ ex-wife, Marisa, saying, “It is with great regret I share that Barret Robbins, Raiders All-Pro center, passed away overnight. Fortunately, he passed peacefully in his sleep.”

‘Please pray for their girls, his family and tons of teammates who will be affected by this! It’s unfortunate that his life was never the same after he was not allowed to play in the Super Bowl. Rest Peacefully BR, you deserve it!’

Robbins’ death was first announced by his former Raiders teammate Tim Brown on Thursday

Robbins was diagnosed with depression while in college at TCU and later bipolar disorder and, for all his success as a player, he was the subject of numerous off-field problems.

None, however, are more high profile than his disappearance from the Raiders team hotel on the eve of their 2003 Super Bowl against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in San Diego.

Two days before he was due to start at center for the Raiders, a driver dropped him back at the team hotel. He said bye to his wife Marisa, who was staying in the hotel reserved for the players’ families, and went inside.

But Marisa got a call the next morning from a Raiders staffer, who was asking where Robbins was. He was in his room at bed check the night before but had not arrived for the team’s morning meeting and was nowhere to be found.

It wasn’t the first time he had gone missing, either. During his second season with the Raiders in 1996, a disoriented Robbins was found wandering around the team hotel in Denver and missed their game the following day.

In January 2001, he went AWOL again in the days before the AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens. He surfaced after around 24 hours and started that game.

Robbins didn’t surface at the Super Bowl until 8pm on the night before the game. He was so incoherent that furious coach Bill Callahan removed him from the team and told him to go to the family hotel. The Raiders got crushed 48-21.

Robbins’ wife later said he told her he had been out partying all night in Tijuana because he thought the Raiders had already won the Super Bowl. 

Speaking about that incident in an interview with a Dallas radio show, he said: ‘I was going through a manic episode that lasted more than two weeks.

‘When we went to the Super Bowl I was having to shoot my foot up, going through acupuncture, going through a lot of pain. Pain is a big trigger when it comes to bipolar. That was something I was going through, as well as self-medicating.’

He would go on to spend 30 days at the Betty Ford Center, where he was diagnosed as bipolar, but the Raiders and the NFL would turn their backs on Robbins in 2003 amid accusations of performance-enhancing drug use. 

On Christmas Eve in 2004, police alleged Robbins punched a security guard who was trying to keep him out of a hotel bar in San Francisco. He was arrested on misdemeanor charges of battery, trespassing and being drunk in public.

In 2005, he was shot three times in the lung and chest by police during a brawl in Miami Beach. He was in a coma for almost two months and then pleaded guilty to five charges when he woke up. He was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to get treatment for his bipolar disorder.

After spending time between jail and rehabilitation facilities in the years after, Robbins was pulled over by police near Dallas in 2010 and he was found to have crack cocaine in his car.

He was sentenced to five years in prison for a probation violation and was released in 2012.

Then, in 2016, the 6’5, 300-pound Robbins was charged with assaulting a woman and her daughter outside a Florida hotel. Robbins allegedly approached them randomly and began punching them repeatedly. He then sat down on a bench.

In October 2020, Robbins was arrested for drug paraphernalia possession or use and trespassing in South Florida. Police also said he was sleeping outside of a 7-Eleven in South Florida frequently.

A month later he was accused of leaving a restaurant in Delray Beach without paying for his food. A worker followed Robbins as he fled before they had an altercation, in which Robbins allegedly threw a rock at them. He was taken into custody by police. 

Page Six has confirmed that Clavicular, a “looksmaxxing” influencer, faces charges of misdemeanor battery and criminal conspiracy to commit battery in Florida.

Identified by his real name, Braden Eric Peters, the influencer was taken into custody in Fort Lauderdale on Thursday, as detailed in a press release from the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.

The charges against Peters originate from an outstanding warrant issued in Osceola County. The Fort Lauderdale Police Department collaborated in locating the 20-year-old influencer on Thursday evening.

According to the press release, Osceola County deputies responded to a battery call at an Airbnb near Kissimmee shortly after 4 a.m. on February 2.

A 19-year-old woman, whose identity remains undisclosed, reported to deputies that she had allegedly been assaulted by 24-year-old Violet Marie Lentz. However, detectives later concluded that Clavicular had “instigated the fight” and subsequently “posted it on social media to exploit the two women,” according to the 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.

MADRID — Noelia Castillo, a 25-year-old Spanish woman who became a symbol in the fight for euthanasia rights, has died in Barcelona after receiving life-ending medication. Her passing marks the culmination of a lengthy legal battle within her family over her right to choose this path.

Castillo’s pursuit of the right to die began nearly two years ago, following a decision by a Catalonian medical committee that approved her euthanasia request in 2024. Her father challenged this decision, igniting a prolonged legal dispute.

Her case attracted significant attention across Spain, where euthanasia and medically assisted suicide became legal in 2021 for patients meeting specific criteria. Castillo’s youth, coupled with her family’s public opposition and her own circumstances, stirred public discourse as the judicial system ultimately upheld her right to end her life.

“Finally, I’ve done it, and perhaps now I can find peace,” Castillo expressed in a poignant interview with Spanish broadcaster Antena 3, aired on Wednesday. “I simply cannot continue any longer.”

Castillo’s parents opposed her decision up until the end, and were represented by the conservative Catholic organization Abogados Cristianos. The Catholic organization on Thursday confirmed that she had died at a Barcelona hospital outside of which a small group of people had gathered.

Attorney Polonia Castellanos, president of Abogados Cristianos, said Castillo’s family was deeply disappointed with the outcome, and believed the Spanish government had abandoned and failed their daughter by allowing her to die.

“Death is the last option, especially when you’re very young,” Castellanos said.

A lengthy legal battle

Castillo struggled with psychiatric illness since she was a teenager, and tried taking her life twice, she said, the second time after she was sexually assaulted. The injuries she suffered from her second suicide attempt in 2022 left her unable to use her legs and in a wheelchair.

The Associated Press does not identify people who say they have been sexually assaulted unless they come forward publicly, as Castillo has done.

In April 2024, Castillo solicited euthanasia with an independent body in Catalonia made up of doctors, lawyers and bioethics experts who deliberate on the application of Spain’s law.

The body approved Castillo’s request based on assessments that evaluated her condition as serious and incurable, and that the 25-year-old had severe, chronic and debilitating suffering.

Spain legalized physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia in 2021 for those suffering from terminal illness and for people with unbearable permanent conditions. The process involves submitting two requests in writing followed up by consultations with medical professionals not previously involved in the case. The law faced intense criticism from conservative political parties and the Catholic Church.

Castillo’s father appealed the Catalan body’s decision, and a court in August 2024 suspended the euthanasia request while it deliberated. Through Abogados Cristianos, Castillo’s father argued that his daughter’s mental illness rendered her incapable of making the decision to end her life.

When a Barcelona court ruled in favor of Castillo’s right to euthanasia, her father’s lawyers appealed again, with the case eventually reaching Spain’s Supreme Court. In January, the court upheld Castillo’s rights. Abogados Cristianos made a final attempt to halt the procedure by appealing to the European Court of Human Rights, which denied the request earlier this month.

Before Castillo died Thursday, Castellanos repeated her client’s view that Castillo had a personality disorder, and said the case was an example of the euthanasia law failing citizens.

“I think this is proof of the failure of the law and that it has to be urgently repealed,” she said. “We’ve been told it was a law for very extreme cases, for people who were very ill, who were practically dying. Here we see that it’s being used to end the life … of a girl of only 25 years who has her whole life ahead of her and who has a treatable illness.”

Castillo’s final wishes

Speaking to Spanish TV, Castillo said she did not want her family to be around when she died, claiming that she was misunderstood. She acknowledged the glaring media spotlight that her case had drawn.

“None of my family is in favor of euthanasia, obviously, because I’m another pillar of the family,” she said, adding, “but what about the pain that I’ve suffered all of these years?”

A disability rights group in Madrid called for a review of Spain’s euthanasia law, adding that it was essential to improve resources for those with disabilities, chronic illnesses or situations of high dependency.

“Before facilitating death, the system must effectively guarantee the conditions for living with dignity,” said Javier Font, president of the Federation of Associations of People with Physical and Organic Disabilities of Madrid, in a statement.

Spain is among nine European countries with laws that allow people experiencing unbearable suffering to access assisted dying, according to Dignity in Dying, a U.K.-based rights group that advocates in favor of euthanasia and medically assisted suicide. The criteria vary by country.

Medically-assisted suicide involves patients themselves taking a lethal drink or medication that has been prescribed by a doctor while euthanasia involves doctors or health practitioners, under strict conditions, actively killing patients who meet certain conditions by giving them a lethal injection at their request.

Since Spain adopted its euthanasia law, 1,123 people have been administered life-ending medicine through the end of 2024, according to the country’s health ministry.

Castillo said she never questioned her decision as she had to reassert her desire to end her life. The calculus for her was simple.

“The happiness of a father or a mother should not supersede the happiness of a daughter.”
