Film
Emil is an accomplice of the evil mobster Clarence Boddicker and serves as a sadistic member of his gang. When a cop named Alex J. Murphy tries to arrest Emil at a steel mill while he is watching an inane television show, Emil and a number of other thugs overpower him and brutally kill Murphy. After Murphy is transformed into Robocop, the cyborg goes in search of crime on the streets of Detroit and eventually finds Emil terrorising an innocent citizen at a petrol station. A stunned Emil recognises Robocop as Murphy and tries to kill him again by blowing up the petrol station before escaping on a motorcycle, but Robocop manages to subdue him.

Later, Emil and the rest of Clarence's gang are seen vandalising a street before setting off to hunt down and destroy Robocop on the orders of Dick Jones. At the steel mill, Emil attempts to run Robocop over with his van, but Robocop tricks him into crashing the van into a vat of toxic waste. Emil is doused in the acidic waste and his skin begins to melt off his body, leading him to wander aimlessly around the mill in agony. Eventually, he stumbles into the path of Boddicker's speeding car and is promptly run over, his body violently splattering over the windscreen in the process.
