Biography
Johnny Ramm maintained a reputation as a legitimate businessman who owned a restaurant. In addition to this, Johnny Ramm and his gang were part of a criminal operation that smuggled Chinese immigrants into the United States. Dick Tracy faked his own death and infiltrated Ramm's gang under the disguise of "Pete Reppoc" ("copper" spelt backwards). Ramm was eventually caught and arrested by Tracy.
