A former teacher who gained notoriety for fleeing to France with a 15-year-old girl in 2012 has lost his job at a bakery in Kent after his past was discovered by “shocked” employers. Jeremy Forrest, who sparked an international manhunt and was subsequently jailed for child abduction and sexual offences, had reinvented himself as an artisan baker in Canterbury.
Jeremy Forrest, now known by the surname Buonocore, secured a job at Gilda Bakery in Bishopsbourne last year. However, his hidden history came to light this week after national newspapers revealed he was working under an assumed name.
