    that’s crazy. somebody in the car industry called in a favor and had the fbi hand pick somebody he trusted and set him up to take him down. there was never any cocaine and the entire thing was fake, how do you go to jail for that if a crime never actually happened, just shows u what powerful people can get people in government police agencies to do if they don’t like them.

      I mean, quite possibly... BOTH daddy Bush and Dubya, as well as "the last guy" all used the FBI to spy on gay rights and black rights groups as a "threat to national security" ...but then again, it's not like John Delorean was mishandling/hoarding national security secrets and lying to the FBI... or being on the HOMELAND SECURITY counsel going on national TV and EXPOSING CLASSIFIED INFORMATION...or REPEATEDLY COMMITTING PERJURY (on taxes, and and lying about being a drug addict to buy a gun) AT THE END OF THE DAY... FBI didn't need to "entrap" those three nitwits >.>

    Glossing over quite a few details, but understandable.
    Hudson was going under, and John used this to leverage himself into a chief engineering position. This brought about the first production automatic transmission.
    I believe 2nd place offering, for goverment funding, was in Vermont.
    John was looking at a rotary engine, but since it wasnt Mazda production, fell through and the PRV engine was the runner up.
    The FBI informant was looked at as a ruthless drug dealer. The day before he took off to the drug deal, he sent a letter to his personal lawyer. Saying he worried for his safety as well as his family.
