I'll go with idiot savant. Supremely skilled when playing with numbers, but not smart enough to say no to financing a coke smuggling operation.

Yes, he was found not guilty because it was entrapment (an informant wanted to give the feds something to reduce his own sentence and knew DeLorean needed money so he offered to let him in on it). But yes, he still went for it.

If your car company needs a shot of cash and smuggling coke seems like the solution...
