...4th DCA 1981). We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. We hold that guilty knowledge is an element of possession of a controlled substance under section 893.13(1)(f), Florida Statutes (1991), and possession of drug paraphernalia under section 893.147(1), Florida Statutes (1995)....
...We agree with this view and, consistent therewith, conclude that the criminal statutes at issue before us today are more akin to offenses that presume a scienter requirement in the absence of express contrary intent. [10] The penalties imposed *743 for violating sections 893.13(6)(a) and 893.147(1) are incongruous with crimes that require no mens rea....
...Hence, the State's position really supports our holding and we commend the State for its forthright approach and candor. Sufficiency of the Information Although by statutory construction we find that guilty knowledge is an element of the crimes defined in sections 893.13(6)(a) and 893.147(1), we hold that the trial court did not err in denying petitioner's motion to dismiss the information....
...[14] We hold that the defendant was entitled to a more specific instruction as requested here. CONCLUSION We quash Chicone v. State, 658 So.2d 1007 (Fla. 5th DCA 1994), because it held that the State did not have to prove that Chicone knew of the illicit nature of the items he possessed under sections 893.13(6)(a) and 893.147(1), Florida Statutes (1993), and find that it was error for the trial court to deny Chicone's request for a special jury instruction on knowledge....
