You're going to have to come up with a convincing reason why you "just
happened" to have someone else's freedom pass in you pocket in the first

Personally, I can't think of a reason I would believe if I were the jury

The reason for having it on me is that my father misplaced the card. SInce having a stroke 6 months ago he has become very forgetful. I found it and held onto it until I would see him next. It was a very simple mistake which has got me into a very bad situation. This could jeoparidse my career - and I fear for this happening.
