The DeLorean Tapes

On August 16, 1984, John Zachary Delorean was acquitted of a massive drugs conspiracy: a Los Angeles jury decided that Delorean had been stalked, enticed and entrapped by undercover government agents. For almost four months, as Delorean was drawn deeper and deeper into the conspiracy, those agents secretly recorded every incriminating word. The Delorean Tapes, published here for the first time, reveal how the FBI conducts 'a sting' - and provide a fascinating insight into the man who promised the world a dream car, and who was finally ruined by that dream.
