Buchan, of Coatbridge, North Lanarkshire, called herself Jessica Jackrabbit on OnlyFans, a site where users pay a monthly subscription to access explicit content. She described herself as a "good teacher gone bad" with a "sexy tight body". Buchan advertised her OnlyFans account through Instagram, which pupils spotted, and previously claimed to have made £60,000 in just one month through the adult site. She was previously warned by her headteacher about her "poor judgment" on social media. And the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GCTS) has taken action by striking her off the teaching register. The regulation body found that Buchan had failed to conceal her identity and profession. It also concluded that her behaviour lacked integrity, as reported by the BBC. Gary Burton, solicitor and presenting officer for the GTCS, said the mum-of-one had "used her profession as a selling tool". He added that Buchan appeared to have backed up her OnlyFans work in media interviews and that Bannerman High was "now synonymous with having an OnlyFans teacher". Hundreds of pupils cheered on a teacher about to undergo lifesaving brain surgery - by rocking out to ACDC'S Thunderstruck She resigned from her position at the school in December 2022 after complaints were made. Buchan declined to appear or give evidence at the GTCS hearing. Bannerman High headteacher, Seonaidh Black, said Buchan was a "bubbly and enthusiastic" person who "wanted to do a good job". But she added that on a "couple of occasions", Buchan was unclear on boundaries with pupils concerning her social media profiles being "open where pupils could access them". Ms Black said that a colleague told her images of Buchan's OnlyFans profile were seen by S5 and S6 pupils. Senior schoolboys asked Ms Black if she had "heard the news?" and that she should "look out for Jessica Jackrabbit". Ms Black added that it was "obvious everyone knew what was going on". She tried to contact Buchan after talks with HR, but couldn't reach her. Buchan's OnlyFans profile was discovered just days before teachers went on strike over pupil behaviour. Ms Black said Buchan's activity online and the walkouts have had a "huge impact" on the school. Following a probe, Glasgow City Council said: "The council has a code of conduct that all employees should adhere to and a teacher who has actively pursued a second income on this type of website brings their school, the council and their profession into disrepute." The GTCS has been contacted for comment.

UK's deadliest gang war molls - from model EuroMillions winner to love triangles

From the youngest lottery winner, the daughter of a gang leader and a vodka business owner, are the woman embroiled in Britain's deadliest gang war between the Lyons and the Daniels Behind the faces of Britain's deadliest gang war between the Lyons and the Daniels are the girlfriends and wives who led a rather glamorous life. But with their status comes the crimes, attacks and bloody feuds that have continued to erupt. The savage double murder of two of Scotland's most infamous gangsters is the latest development in a violent feud between the Lyons network and the rival Daniel mob that has spanned over two decades. ‌ On May 30, Ross Monaghan, 43, and his criminal associate Eddie Lyons Junior, 46, had just finished watching the Champions League final in a Costa del Sol pub when they were gunned down by a masked assailant. The pair have links to the infamous Scottish Lyons clan, which police linked to a series of assaults, firebombings and shootings across Edinburgh and Glasgow, alongside the rival Daniel gang. ‌ The escalating violence was reportedly attributed to attempts made at undermining the criminal reign of Mark Richardson, allegedly involved in cocaine distribution, and his crony, Steven "Bonzo" Daniel. Associates of the Lyons are said to have mobilised alongside cocaine merchant Ross "Miami" McGill following a heist by Richardson's crew, who reportedly nabbed drugs valued at £500,000 from them, Daily Mail reports. The conflict has since intensified, culminating in the recent hit job, subsequently leading to cautionary messages about possible retaliatory measures being disseminated online. Social media posts have called on people associated with the Daniels and Richardsons to "leave Scotland immediately", while others have attempted to call Scots to arms. But away from the bloody feud between the Lyons network and the rival Daniel mob, their wives and girlfriends lead a more glamorous life... Olivia Newall Olivia Newall is the moll of Ross 'Miami' McGill, the former Union Bears chief and now gang boss. The couple are thought to have been in Costa del Sol before moving to Dubai. McGill is said to be close with her cousin Lloyd Cross, having grown up near each other in Glasgow. ‌ Nicola Cassells Mum-of-three Nicola Cassells is the ex-girlfriend of John Bonner, a gangster who drove infamous Daniels enforcer Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll to an Asda car park where he was brutally killed in 2010. During the trial of 'Gerbil's' murder suspect Ross Monaghan in 2012, who was later cleared, Bonner gave evidence about his role in the death of his friend. The court heard that Bonner was one of 99 potential suspects identified in the murder, reports Birmingham Live. ‌ In 2024, Bonner was sentenced to five years and 10 months in prison for his part in serious organised crime. Nicola Morrissey Nicola Morrissey is the wife of 'Johnny Cash' Morrissey. Together, they have a property portfolio and share their Nero Vodka business in Costa Del Sol. ‌ 'Johnny Cash' is said to be involved in the Kinahan cartel, an Irish organised crime group with links to the Lyons in Glasgow. Conservative MSP and former crime journalist Russell Findlay, who was targeted in an acid attack by the gangs, told the Scottish Parliament in 2022: "One Kinahan gang member who has been sanctioned [by US authorities in 2022] is John Morrissey, along with his Glasgow-based vodka company, Nero Drinks. "The Kinahans are not interested in flogging vodka - their real business is cocaine and heroin. It is widely known that the cartel is in partnership with Scotland's Lyons gang, making vast profits from killing Scots." ‌ The couple reportedly have piles of cash and expensive paintings at their Marbella home, with a £350K Rolls-Royce. Kelly Bo Green Kelly Bo Green is the daughter of crime boss Jamie Daniel, who died in 2016 from cancer. Kelly was also the girlfriend of Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll, who was Daniels' enforcer, before he was murdered in 2010 at the age of 29. This saw Lyons gangster, Billy 'Buff' Paterson, jailed for life. ‌ Green said at his funeral: "He was a lover, a friend, he was my everything." Their £217,00 home near Glasgow was seized after his death, and she was forced to move out. Her new home in the Scottish city was then reportedly set alight by McGill enforcers Tamo Junto (TMJ) linked to the gang feud. Green was arrested in 2017 after shoplifting £800 worth of clothes from H&M. She appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court and was ordered to carry out 180 hours of unpaid community work as an alternative to prison. ‌ She is believed to be part of the same shoplifting gang that includes her aunt, Annette Daniel, who has 22 convictions for shoplifting and has spent time in jail for theft, reports the Daily Record. Caroline Stevenson Caroline Stevenson is the wife of crime boss Jamie 'Iceman' Stevenson, who was jailed for 20 years in 2024 for plotting to import £100m worth of cocaine camouflaged as bananas. While her husband, who was dubbed the Scottish Tony Soprano, remains behind bars, Caroline leads a glamorous life and runs an ice cream parlour in Glasgow. ‌ She is often spotted on social media boasting designer clothes and isn't shy to flaunt her wealth. During her husband's trial, she reportedly shared an image of a banana with the caption, "bananas can put a smile on your face", alongside five laughing face emojis. Jane Park Jane Park made a name for herself after becoming the UK's youngest EuroMillions winner when she scooped £1million at the tender age of 17, back in 2013. She's since been involved in a gang love affair. ‌ Park previously dated Richardson crook David Togher, who is said to have had a romantic encounter with Nicola Cassells. However, Togher is claimed to have cheated on Park with Jodie Steele, his friend Marc Webley's girlfriend. After Togher was seen with Steele, Park is said to have started dating Richardson gangster Webley - for a complete gangster partner swap. They continued their relationship, but in 2023, Webley was shot dead outside an Edinburgh pub on New Year's Eve. Park shared on Instagram at the time: "If I could cuddle you again and tell you everything is going to be OK I would give anything to do it Marc. ‌ "The months we spent together taught me some valuable things in life and I'll never forget you. I am absolutely devastated. "The best bed for you is up there my handsome [love heart emoji]." ‌ Away from the complicated love life, Park has taken on various modelling jobs and gone under the knife for plastic surgeries, including a breast enlargement that took her from a 34B to a 36FF. In 2017, she went through a terrifying ordeal and nearly lost her life after contracting sepsis following a Brazilian butt lift. In 2023, she told her 220K Instagram fans that she had gone to Turkey for a second boob job and liposuction. It was also reported that she was making money from posting racy snaps on OnlyFans. Jodie Steele Jodie Steele, 41, was said to have been in a relationship with Marc Webley for around 15 years. She later sparked a romance with Richardson mobster David Togher, and they are thought to still be together today. Togher was only released from jail in 2023 after a six-year sentence for slashing the face of alleged heroin kingpin Sean 'Lugs' McGovern in 2016. Togher reportedly fled a gang attack earlier this year after he is said to have ran away from an armed thug who could have been targeting him.

Greg Monks' family hope to bring body home from Portugal 'this week'

Greg, 38, from Cambuslang, near Glasgow, vanished in Albufeira almost two weeks ago on the first night of a stag do trip to the Algarve. The family of tragic Scots tourist Greg Monks are hoping to bring his body home this week after he plummeted to his death i n Portugal. Greg, 38, from Cambuslang, near Glasgow, vanished in Albufeira almost two weeks ago while on the first night of a stag do trip to Albufeira in the Algarve. He was last seen in the early hours of May 28 on CCTV cameras, four miles away from the famous club strip where he partied with his mates hours before. ‌ A major search was launched by police, with his worried family family also flying out to Portugal in a desperate bid to find him. Sadly, after almost a full week of searching, Greg's body was discovered at the bottom of a ravine on Wednesday, June 5. ‌ Greg's mum, girlfriend Nicole and cousin face a heartbreaking journey back to Scotland without him with the repatriation process set to take several days. Devastated sister Jillian Monks, who stayed at home with her two young children during the search, has told how the family "have closure" as they plan to bring Greg home. In an update, Jillian told the Record: 'We're hoping to bring Greg home by the weekend. 'His mum, girlfriend and cousin are going to fly home tonight. They wanted to fly back with him but it has just not been possible. ‌ 'It has been the toughest time of our lives. We still can't believe what has happened. 'But we're glad we now have some sense of closure. I don't know if any of us could have coped with even another day searching for my brother. 'We couldn't eat, we couldn't sleep. It was absolute torture. ‌ 'To know Greg has been found is a slight relief. We can now bring him home and give him the send off he deserves.' Police found Greg's body near the quiet residential area of Cerro de Aguia, where he was last sighted. Sniffer dogs were sent to the area after a nearby homeowner sent fresh CCTV which showed Greg attempting to climb a fence before he suffered a fatal fall. ‌ Jillian says the family believe that Greg came to no harm. She said: "We don't believe that anything untoward happened. Everything the police have told us adds up. "We'll never truly know the full story. But we believe he just got lost and ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time. ‌ "It brings us some comfort knowing that Greg all had his belongings on him. He wasn't robbed, he still had his phone and his wallet, he had all his cards and cash." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

She said: "I think it just shows in places like Albufeira everyone needs to stick together and look after each other. His pals are absolutely devastated at what happened. "Before everyone left the hotel that night Greg made sure they all had a business card and a map from the hotel to help them find their way home. ‌ "That is the kind of person he was. He was just looking after everyone else. He was so considerate." Jillian has shared her family's anger over how they were informed of Greg's death with local press in Portugal sharing the news just as they arrived to a police station to meet with officers. ‌ Jillian said: "I knew Greg had been found before my mum and dad were told officially by police in Portugal. "They were waiting in a police station to meet with officers when their phones went with notifications to say Greg had been found. "It is shocking that this was allowed to happen." ‌ An online Go Fund Me was launched to initially search for Greg. Almost £34,000 has been raised which Jillian says will cover the cost of bringing him home and planning his funeral. She said: "The generosity and support has been incredible. We are grateful to everyone who helped look for Greg and those who have donated to bring him back home."
