Ramos was brilliant, handsome, wealthy, and one of Rio de Janeiro’ s (里约热内卢的) beautiful people. At age thirty-six, he was a prominent plastic surgeon who owned two medical clinics. At parties, he met and talked to famous Hollywood movie personalities and sports stars. He seemed to be the perfect example of the good life. But by March of 1982, thirty - six- year old Ramos was found in a Brazilian prison charged with eighteen crimes including armed robbery, drug smuggling and murder.
According to police, Ramos used his personal friendships with wealthy people to prepare for his crimes. He would attend the parties of his friends, inspect their houses carefully for valuables, draw diagrams of their homes, and then send in professional burglars to rob them. His victims were jewel designers, diplomats, and wealthy social figures.
Sometimes Ramos even stole things himself. One of his crimes was stealing an expensive watch from the famous soccer player, Pele. He also sold stolen cars and used two private air planes to smuggle cocaine.
In the fall of 1981, however, the famous plastic surgeon, s double life came apart . He was arrested after an informant told police that Ramos was involved in s series of thefts. Ramos escaped by simply waking out the main door of the Rio de Janeiro police building, but police soon found the body of his personal pilot and accused drug - smuggling partner in an old hotel. Police believed he was murdered for informing them about Ramos. Then Ramos hid with another of his accomplices, who was later found shot to death on an old country road, In less than a month, police managed to find Ramos was hiding in as run- down neighborhood, When he was caught, he had a diamond ring worth over $ 90 000 in his jeans pocket.
In later interviews, Ramos had said he really didn’t know he committed the crimes. He had denied the murders, and his lawyers are saying he is insane. Perhaps one reason for Ramos’s behavior can be found in his family history. His grandfather had murdered six members of one family, and his father was accused of killing his mother’s lover, but those charges were later dropped. Ramos seemed to escape that background by studying medicine and socializing with some of the most important people in Brazilian society. But that wasn’t enough.
In the sentence "Police believed he was murdered for informing them about Ramos" (Para. 3), "he" may refer to
