So the owner has to touch it to make it “authentic”? Hmmmmm.
But then could it be turned round on him, like this:
“Look you didn’t claim THAT one back then, does that mean you STILL don’t have one you can hand to us?”
“Where’s the real one?”
“So the owner has to touch it to make it ‘authentic’?”
It creates one additional protective layer against a charge of participating in criminally forging the LFBC if Barry were to be proved to have actually held the forged document.
It would place him in the link of custody of the forgery subjecting him to having to testify to who gave it to him...which a prosecutor could then possible trace back from Barry to the forger.
