You were the one who wanted to be the detective's sidekick, right?
If so, perhaps we should reclassify your character as a "main" with minor role.

Lets go with a minor role

You could be character 4. - The Secretary's Sister's Mobster Boyfriend. A Minor Role. However, there is a chance that you won't get to fight the Detective as him.
You could also apply as a generic badguy mobster side character. The side characters will have very little role but they will certanly get to fight the detective!

Of course!
You can provide as much information about him as you want. You could also Roleplay multiple mobsters.

Okay, I think these mobsters could be the ones who kidnap the secretary and guard her in a warehouse...

No need to hurry. It will probably take at least 2 days to start the RP, and than another 5 days to get to the part where the mobsters fight the Detective...

I will go into better detail with the other two but that one was the quickest since he was the one who will be in it the least.

I had an idea of playing as a Polish Jewish second generation immigrant mobster, named Joe Kowalzsky. I work the entire day tomorrow, but I'm free on Monday and will most likely have an app up by then, since I already have most of his bio ready.

Perhaps the "Secretary's Sister's Mobster Boyfriend" would be a fitting role for your character. He is an influential man in the chicago mob/maffia.

Perhaps. If I can manage such a major character. Anyway:

Name: Joseph "Joe" Kowalski
Role: Mobster/Secretary's Sister's Mobster Boyfriend
Appearance:
Bio/background: Born by Polish-Jewish immigrants and grew up in the poor parts of town. He often skipped school. Instead he provided himself by working as a paperboy and pickpocketing. His home was not a good environment for a small boy, so he often took to the streets, where he often got into fights, which he soon got good at. As a teenager he started with moonshining for personal use, which his friends soon find out about, and became loyal customers. The money was good, and he kept brewing as an adult. When the probition started he expanded his business, and even begun to smuggle finer spirits over the Canadian border along with a gang of trusted companions. This is where he is now, on the way to build his own criminal empire.
Skills: Good fighter, fists of steel. Lucky. Economical sense above average.
Weaknesses: Very suspicious towards strangers. Somewhat clumsy socially.
