The Supreme Court Committee on Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases (Committee) has submitted proposed changes to the standard jury instructions and asks that the Court authorize the amended standard instructions for publication and use. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.

In 2013, this Court authorized for publication and use amended Standard Criminal Jury Instructions 25.9-25.13, which pertain to various drug trafficking offenses. See In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Crim. Cases— Instrs. 25.9-25.13, 112 So.3d 1211 (Fla. 2013). In our opinion in that case, we asked the Committee to “review jury instructions 25.2-25.8 and make a recommendation to the Court whether any amendments to those instructions are warranted in light of the Court’s decision here, or in light of [State v.] Adkins [96 So.3d 412 (Fla. 2012).]” 1 We also asked the Committee for a recommendation as to “whether instructions 25.9-25.13 should be amended in light of Smith v. United States, — U.S. —, 133 S.Ct. 714, 184 L.Ed.2d 570 (2013).” In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Crim. Cases, 112 So.3d at 1212. 2 In response to our requests for recommendations on these points, the Committee has filed the current report proposing further amendments to the aforementioned instructions, proposing amendments to other standard instructions pertaining to drug offenses, and proposing two entirely new instructions. This Court directed that the proposals be published in The Florida Bar News. No comments have been filed with the Court in response to publication.

The Committee’s proposed changes affect the following existing criminal jury instructions: 25.2 (Drug Abuse — Sale, Purchase, Manufacture, Delivery, or Possession with Intent); 25.3 (Drug Abuse-Sale, Purchase, Delivery, or Possession in Excess of Ten Grams); 25.4 (Drug *193 Abuse — Delivery to or Use of Minor); 25.5 (Drug Abuse — Bringing into State); 25.6 (Drug Abuse — Contraband in Specified Locations); 25.7 (Drug Abuse — Possession); 25.8 (Drug Abuse — Obtaining Controlled Substance by Fraud, etc.); 25.9 (Trafficking in Cannabis); 25.10 (Trafficking in Cocaine); 25.11 (Trafficking in Morphine, Opium, Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Hydromorphone, [or] Heroin); 25.12 (Trafficking in Phencyclidine); 25.13 (Trafficking in • Methaqualone); 25.14 (Drug Abuse — Use or Possession of Drug Paraphernalia); 25.15 (Drug Abuse — Delivery, Possession with Intent to Deliver, or Manufacture with Intent to Deliver Drug Paraphernalia); 25.16 (Drug Abuse — Delivery of Drug Paraphernalia to a Minor); 25.17 (Contraband in County Detention Facility); and 25.18 (Contraband in Juvenile Facility). The Committee proposes that we also authorize for publication and use the following new instructions: 25. 20 (Possession of Contraband in or Upon the Grounds of a State Correctional Institution); and 25.21 (Introduction or Removal of Contraband into or from a State Correctional Institution). We authorize the proposed amended and new instructions for publication and use except as noted below.

In its report, the Committee states that it found the law was uncertain on the issue of whether “knowledge of presence” is a required element of certain drug offenses. With respect to certain offenses, the Committee found that “knowledge of presence” may or may not be an element. The Committee proposes to address this uncertainty by including optional instructions along with notes and comments to explain the issue.

Currently, Instruction 25.2 (Sale, Purchase, Manufacture, Delivery, or Possession with Intent) lists the following as element 3: “Defendant had knowledge of the presence of the substance,” preceded by an advisory note saying, “Give if possession is charged.” The Committee proposes to change the advisory note to read: “Give element # 3 if Possession with Intent to Sell, Purchase, Manufacture or Deliver is charged. It is unclear whether element # 3 must be given for Sale, Manufacture, Delivery, or Purchase of a Controlled Substance. See Comment section.”

Current Instruction 25.3 (Sale, Purchase, Delivery, or Possession in Excess of Ten Grams) includes as element 3, “Defendant had knowledge of the presence of the substance,” preceded by a note saying, “Give if possession is charged.” The Committee proposes to change the note to read: “Give element #3 if possession is charged. It is unclear whether element # 3 must be given for Sale, Purchase, or Delivery of a controlled substance. See Comment section.”

Instruction 25.4 (Delivery to or Use of a Minor) does not currently include “knowledge of presence” as an element. The Committee proposes to add it as element 4, reading, “Defendant had knowledge of the presence of the substance,” preceded by a note saying, “It is unclear whether element # 4 must be given for Delivery of a Controlled Substance. See Comment section.”

Instruction 25.5 (Bringing into State) currently includes as element 3: “Defendant had knowledge of the presence of the substance.” The Committee proposes adding a note preceding element 3 reading, “It is unclear whether element # 3 must be given. See Comment section.”

Instruction 25.6 (Contraband in Specified Locations) currently includes as element 4: “Defendant had knowledge of the presence of the substance.” The Committee proposes to add the following advisory notes: “Give element # 4 if Possession with Intent to Sell, Manufacture or Deliver is charged. It is unclear whether element *194 # 4 must be given for Sale, Manufacture, or Delivery of a Controlled Substance. See Comment section.”

With some variations in the language, the Committee proposes adding comments to all five of the above-listed instructions explaining the issue as follows:

Unlike the trafficking statutes, the statutes for these crimes do not contain the word “knowingly.” Also, the affirmative defense statute of section 893.101, Florida Statutes,, addresses only “knowledge of illicit nature” and not “knowledge of presence.” Because of case law, “knowledge of presence” is an element of possession, which is why [an instruction on knowledge of presence] must be given if the defendant is charged with [possession or possession with intent]. See State v. Oxx, 417 So.2d 287 (Fla. 5th DCA 1982). However, there is an absence of case law as to whether “knowledge of presence” is an element of [other offenses covered by these five instructions] or whether “lack of knowledge of presence” is an affirmative defense. In the absence of case law, trial judges must decide this issue.

We decline to authorize the Committee’s proposed amendments to these five instructions insofar as the treatment of “knowledge of presence” is concerned.

In State v. Adkins, 96 So.3d at 414-16, this Court addressed a facial challenge to the constitutionality of section 893.101, Florida Statutes (2011). 3 The lower court had held that the statute’s purported elimination of the requirement of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance as an element of offenses under chapter 893, Florida Statutes (2011), was a violation of the requirements of due process of law under the United States and Florida Constitutions. This Court reversed that decision. See Adkins, 96 So.3d at 412, 423. In its analysis of the constitutionality of 893.101, the plurality opinion said, “The statute does not eliminate the element of knowledge of the presence of the sub-stance_” Id. at 416. An opinion concurring in result found that the statute “eontinue[d] to require the State to prove that a defendant had knowledge of the presence of the controlled substance as an element of drug-related offenses.” Id. at 424 (Pariente, J., concurring in result). The effect of section 893.101 was to exclude “knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance” as an element of “any offense under this chapter.” In Adkins, in the process of finding the statute *195 constitutional, a majority of the Court found that “knowledge of the presence” continued to be an element of drug-related offenses. More recently, the Court observed:

In Adkins, a majority of the Court held that the guilty knowledge element, in light of the express language in section 893.101, Florida Statutes (2011), is limited to knowledge of the presence of the substance sold, purchased, manufactured, delivered, or brought into the state. [96 So.3d] at 423. Knowledge of the illicit nature of the controlled substance is, under the statute, an affirmative defense.

In re Std. Jury Instrs. in Crim. Cases— Instrs. 25.9-25.13, 112 So.3d 1211, 1211 (Fla. 2013).

We agree with the Committee that the issue of whether knowledge of the presence of the controlled substance is an element of a given offense may be a legal issue that must be decided based on the provisions of the particular statute, court decisions applying the statutes, and the circumstances of the case. But we do not agree that trial judges should be told that under certain circumstances the lack of knowledge of the presence of the substance should be treated as an affirmative defense. This is contrary to what we said in Adkins and In re Standard Jury Instructions. We therefore do not authorize those parts of the proposed amendments that address the treatment of “knowledge of presence” by indicating that under certain circumstances lack of knowledge of presence may be an affirmative defense. The notes and comments proposed by the Committee that address this point are not authorized for publication. 4

With the changes noted above, we authorize the amended instructions for publication and use as set forth in the appendix. New language is indicated by underlining, and deleted language is indicated by struck-through type. 5 In authorizing the publication and use of these instructions, we express no opinion on their correctness and remind all interested parties that this authorization forecloses neither requesting additional or alternative instructions nor contesting the legal correctness of the instructions. We further caution all interested parties that any comments associated with the instructions reflect only the opinion of the Committee and are not necessarily indicative of the views of this Court as to their correctness or applicability. The amended instructions as set forth in the appendix shall be effective when this opinion becomes final.

It is so ordered.

If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a substance was located, you may not infer [he] [[she] had knowledge of the presence of the substance or the ability to control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So.2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).

However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it if [he][she] had joint control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

Possession may be actual or construc-

There are two ways to exercise control: actual possession and constructive possession.

Actual possession.

Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the substance and:

a. The controlled substance is in the hand of or on the person, or

b. The controlled substance is in a container in the hand of or on the person, or

c. The controlled substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is under the control of the person.

Give -if applicable?

Mere proximity to a controlled-substance is-not-sufficient to establish-control over that controlled substance when it-is-not-in a place over which-the-per-son has control.

Constructive possession.

Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of the substance, the controlled substance is in a place over which the (defendant) person has control, and the person has the ability to control the substance or-in which the (defendant)-has- concealed it.

Give if applicable.-

Mere proximity-to-a-substance is not sufficient to establish control-over-that substance when the substance-is-in-a place that the person-does not control.

Give if applicable.

In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a controlled substance if the controlled-substance that was is in a place over which the (defendant) [he] [she] does did not have control, the State must prove the (defen-danfe) (1) knew that the substance was within [his][her] presence has the control over.the-controlled-substance and (2) knowledge-that-the controlled substance was within the (defendanRs)-presence exercised control or ownership over the substance itself.

Joint possession.

Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly possess -an article, exercising exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is *219 considered to be in possession of that artiele-the substance.

If a person has exclusive-possession of a controlled substancerknowledge of its presence-may- be inferred — or—assumed.

Inferences.

Give if applicable. See McMiUon v. State, 813 SoM 56 (Fla. 2002).

You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled substance knows of its illicit nature.

Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So.3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012); Meme v. State, 72 So.3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).

If you find that (defendant):

a. had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]

b. was within ready reach of the substance and the substance was under [his][her] control, [or]

c. had exclusive control of the place where the substance was located,

you may infer that [he][she] was aware of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it.

If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a substance was located, you may not infer [he] [[she] had knowledge of the presence of the substance or the ability to control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

A-spe&ial instruction-is-necessary tvhere the premises-is jointly-occupied and-the contrabamd-is-located inr-a-eommon area, m-plam-vieio, and in -the presence of the owner-or■ occupant. Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So. 2d 653 (Fla. Uh DCA 2008).

If a person does not- have exclusive possession — of a controlled-substance. knowledge of its presence may not beinferred or assumed. However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it if [he][she] had .joint control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

Knowledge- of the illicit nature of the controlled substance. Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.

Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is an affirmative defense to Trafficking in Cocaine. The-defendant (Defendant) has raised this defense. You-are permitted to presume-that (defendant)-was aware of the illicit nature of- the controlled substance if you find that — (defendant) was-in actual or constructive-possession of the controlled substance.

You are permitted to presume that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he][she] knew of the presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the substance.

If from the evidence you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the charge have been proved, you should find (defendant) [him][her] guilty of Trafficking in Cocaine.

If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find (defendant) *220 [him][her] not guilty of Trafficking in Cocaine.

Give if applicable: — See McMillon — Vr State, -813-So.2d 56 (F~la3QQ2fr

You are permitted to -infer that a person who sells--a- controlled substance knows of its illicit nature.

See State v. Weller, 590 So.2d 923 (Fla. 1991).

If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Cocaine, you must further determine by your verdict whether the State has further proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:

Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(l)(b)l.-2., Fla. Stat. to verify the weights or amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if applicable up to extent of charge.

a. [The [cocaine][mixture containing cocaine] weighed 28 grams or more but less than 200 grams.]

b. [The [cocaine][mixture containing cocaine] weighed 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams.]

c. [The [cocaine][mixture containing cocaine] weighed 400 grams or more but less than 150 kilograms.]

d. [The [cocaine] [mixture containing cocaine] weighed 150 kilograms or more.]

Lesser Included Offenses

Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery, bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included offenses, trial .judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For .example, if a defendant is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Phencyclidine, you must further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:

Enhanced penalty. See § 893.135(l)(d)l.a.-c., Fla. Stat. to verify the weights or amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if applicable up to extent of charge.

a. [The [phencyclidine][mixture containing phencyclidine] weighed 28 grams or more but less than 200 grams.]

b. [The [phencyclidine] [mixture containing phencyclidine] weighed 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams.]

c. [The [phencyclidine][mixture containing phencyclidine] weighed 400 grams or more.]

Lesser Included Offenses

Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery, bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included offenses, trial .judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

25.13 TRAFFICKING IN METHAQUALONE

§ 893.135(l)(e), Fla. Stat.

Certain drugs and chemical substances are by law known as “controlled substances.” Methaqualone or any mixture containing methaqualone is a controlled substance.

To prove the crime of Trafficking in Methaqualone, the State must prove the following three elements, beyond a reasonable doubt:

1.(Defendant) knowingly [possessed] [sold] [purchased] [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] a certain substance.

[sold}

[purchased]

[manufactured]

[delivered]

[brought into Florida]

[possessed-]

a certain substance.

2. The substance was [methaqual-one] [a mixture containing metha-qualone].

3. The [methaqualone] [a mixture containing methaqualone] weighed 200 grams or more.

If applicable under the facts of the case and pursuant to § 893.135(2), Fla. Stat., instructions on the following elements 1 and 2 should be given instead of elements 1 and 2 above. For example, if it is alleged that the defendant intended to sell heroin but actually sold methaqualone, instructions on elements 1 and 2 below would be given.

1. (Defendant) intended to [sell] [purchase] [manufacture] [deliver] [bring into Florida] [possess] (an enumerated controlled substance in § 893.135(1), Fla. Stat.)5.

2. The defendant actually [sold] [purchased] [manufactured] [delivered] [brought into Florida] [possessed] methaqualone or a mixture containing methaqualone.

Sell.

“Sell” means to transfer or deliver something to another person in exchange for money or something of value or a promise of money or something of value.

Manufacture. § 893.02(13)(a), Fla. Stat.

“Manufacture” means the production, preparation, packaging, labeling or relabeling, propagation, compounding, cultivating, growing, conversion or processing of a controlled substance, either directly or indirectly. Manufacturing can be by extraction from substances of natural origin, or independently by means of chemical synthesis. It can *230 also be by a combination of extraction and chemical synthesis.

Deliver. § 893.02(5), Fla. Stat.

“Deliver” or “delivery” means the actual, constructive, or attempted transfer from one person to another of a controlled substance, whether or not there is an agency relationship.

Possession.

To “possess” means- to- have personal charge of or-exercise the right of ownership, management, -or — control over the thing-possessedr

Possession-may be actual or construc-tive.

There are two ways to exercise control: actual possession and constructive possession.

Actual possession.

Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the substance and:

a. The controlled substance is in the hand of or on the person, or

b. The controlled substance is in a container in the hand of or on the person, or

c. The controlled substance is so close as to be within ready reach and is under the control of the person.

lluDV\JX 1 vi. vlf

Constructive possession.

Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of the substance, the controlled substance is in a place over which the (defendant) person has control, and the person has the ability to control the substance or — in which the (defendant) has concealed-it,

Give if applicable.

Mere proximity to a substance is not sufficient to establish control over that substance when the substance is in a place that the person does not control.

Give if applicable.

In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of a controlled substance if the-controlled substance that was ⅛ in a place over-w-hich the (defendant) [he][she] does did not have control, the State must prove the (defen-danfe) (1) knew that the substance was within [his][her] presence has the control over the -controlled substance and (2) knowledge that the controlled-substance-was within the (defendanfe)-pres-enee exercised control or ownership over the substance itself.

Joint possession.

Possession of a substance may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons may be aware of the presence of the substance and may jointly possess an article, exercising exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in possession of that article the substance.

If a person has exclusive possession-of a controlled-substance, knowledge- of its presence may be inferred -or — assumed.

Inferences.

Give if applicable. See McMillon v. State, 813 So.2d 56 (Fla. 2002).

You are permitted to infer that a person who sells a controlled substance knows of its illicit nature.

*231 Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So.3d 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012); Meme v. State, 72 So.3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).

If you find that (defendant):

a. had direct physical custody of the substance, [or]

b. was within ready reach of the substance and the substance was under [his][her] control, [or]

c. had exclusive control of the place . where the substance was located,

you may infer that [he][she] was aware of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it.

If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where a substance was located, you may not infer [he] [[she] had knowledge of the presence of the substance or the ability to control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

A-special instruction is necessary-ivhere the-premises is jointly.occupied and the contraband is located in a common area, in plain-vieWj-and in the-presence of the owner--or occupant. Give if applicable. See Duncan v. State, 986 So.2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).

If a person does not-have exclusive possession of a controlled substance, knowledge of its presence-may not be inferred or-assumed. However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it if [he][she] had joint control over the place where the substance was located, and the substance was located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

Knoioledge of the illi&it-nature.of the controlled substance.- Affirmative defense:

Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. Give if applicable. § 893.101(2) and (3), Fla. Stat.

Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is an affirmative defense to Trafficking in Me-thaqualone. The defendant (Defendant) has raised this defense. You are permitted to presume that-(defendant) was aware-of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that (dofon dant) was in actual or-constructive possession of the controlled-substance,

You are permitted to presume that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he][she] knew of the presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the substance.

If from the — evidence you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the charge have been proved, you should find (defendant) [him][her] guilty of Trafficking in Me-thaqualone.

If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find (defendant) . [him][her] not guilty of Trafficking in Methaqualone.

Give if applicable. — See—McMillon v. State, 818-So/2d-56 (Fla£Q02).-

You are permitted to-infer- that a person who sells a controlled-substance knows-of its illicit nature.

See State v. Weller, 590 So.2d 923 (Fla. 1991).

If you find the defendant guilty of Trafficking in Methaqualone, you must *232 further determine by your verdict whether the State has proved beyond a reasonable doubt that:

Enhanced penalty. See § 89S.135(l)(e)l.a.-c., Fla. Stat. to verify the weights or amounts specified in the statute, as determined by the date of the offense. Give if applicable up to extent of charge.

a. [The [methaqualone][mixture containing methaqualone] weighed 200 grams or more but less than 5 kilograms.]

b. [The [methaqualone] [mixture containing methaqualone] weighed 5 kilograms or more but less than 25 kilograms.]

c. [The [methaqualone][mixture containing methaqualone] weighed 25 kilograms or more.]

Lesser Included Offenses

Trafficking can be committed by sale, purchase, manufacture, delivery, bringing into this state, or actual or constructive possession of a certain amount of drugs. Each of these alternatives has its own statute for lower quantities of controlled substances. Accordingly, before deciding the appropriate lesser-included offenses, trial judges should review not only the evidence but also the charging document to see what type of trafficking was alleged. For example, if a defendant is charged only with Trafficking via Sale, then Possession of a Controlled Substance should not be given as a lesser-included offense.

If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where an object was located, you may not infer [he] [[she] had knowledge of the presence of the object or the ability to control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

Give if applicable. Duncan v. State, 986 So.2d 653 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008).

Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. § 893.101(2) Fla. Stat.

Give if applicable.

Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a defense to possession of a controlled substance. Accordingly, the defendant is not guilty of possessing a controlled substance if [he][shej did not know of the illicit nature of the substance.

You are permitted to presume that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he][she] knew of the presence of the substance and exercised management, control, or ownership over the substance.

If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the charge have been proved, you should find [him][her] guilty.

If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him][her] not guilty of possession of a controlled substance.

Affirmative defense of permission. Give if the defendant has satisfied his or her burden of production. See Wright v. State, W So.2d 1058 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983).

If the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did not use regular channels or did not have authorization from the sheriff or officer in charge of the detention facility, you should find [him][her] guilty, if all the elements of the charge have also been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

1. (Defendant) possessed

Give as applicable.

a. [written or recorded communication] [currency or coin] [an article of [food] [clothing]] that was [given or transmitted] [intended to be given or transmitted] to an inmate of a state correctional institution.

*253 f. any [cellular telephone] [portable communication device] intentionally and unlawfully introduced inside the secure perimeter of the state correctional institution.

2. At the time, (defendant) was [an inmate] [upon the grounds] of a state correctional facility.

Give in all cases. § 9⅛⅛.02(8) Fla. Stat.

“State correctional facility” means any prison, road camp, prison industry, prison forestry camp, or any prison camp or prison farm or other correctional facility, temporary or permanent, in which prisoners are housed, worked, or maintained, under the custody and jurisdiction of the Department of Corrections.

Give if clothing is alleged. State v. Becton, 665 So.2d 358 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995).

“Clothing” means things worn to cover the body and limbs.

Give if currency is alleged. State v. Becton, 665 So.2d 358 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995).

“Currency” means money or another commodity which is in circulation as a medium of exchange.

Give if weapon is alleged. State v. Fleming, 606 So.2d 1229 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992).

A “weapon” is an instrument that is designed and constructed for use as a weapon, or, if the instrument is capable of being used as a weapon, the defendant used, threatened to use, or intended to use the instrument as a weapon.

Give if firearm is alleged. § 790.001(6) Fla. Stat.

“Firearm” means any weapon (including a starter gun) which will, is designed to, or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive [;the frame or receiver of any such weapon] [any firearm muffler or firearm silencer] [any destructive device] [any machine gun].

Give if portable communication device is alleged. § 91i.kA7(l)(a)6 Fla. Stat.

The term “portable communication device” means any device carried, worn, or stored which is designed or intended to receive or transmit verbal or written messages, access or store data, or connect electronically to the Internet or any other electronic device and which allows communications in any form. Such devices include, but are not limited to, portable two-way pagers, hand-held radios, cellular telephones, Blackberry-type devices, personal digital assistants or PDA’s, laptop computers, or any components of these devices which are intended to be used to assemble such devices. The term also includes any new technology that is developed for similar purposes. [Excluded from this definition is any device having communication capabilities which has been approved or issued by the department for investigative or institutional security purposes or for conducting other state business.]

Possession.

There are two ways to exercise control: actual possession and constructive possession.

Actual possession.

Actual possession means the person is aware of the presence of the object and

a. the object is in the hand of or on the person, or

*254 b. the object is in a container in the hand of or on the person, or

c. the object is so close as to be within ready reach and is under the control of the person.

Constructive possession.

Constructive possession means the person is aware of the presence of the object, the object is in a place over which the person has control, and the person has the ability to control the object.

Give if applicable.

Mere proximity to an object is not sufficient to establish control over that object when the object is in a place that the person does not control.

Give if applicable.

In order to establish (defendant’s) constructive possession of an object that was in a place [he][she] did not control, the State must prove (defendant) (1) knew that the object was within [his][her] presence and (2) exercised control or ownership over the object itself.

Joint possession.

Possession of an object may be sole or joint, that is, two or more persons may be aware of the presence of an object and may jointly exercise control over it. In that case, each of those persons is considered to be in possession of that object.

Inferences.

Exclusive control. Henderson v. State, 88 So.Sd 1060 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012); Meme v. State, 72 So.3d 254 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011).

If you find that (defendant):

a. had direct physical custody of the object, [or]

b. was within ready reach of the object and the object was under [his][her] control, [or]

c. had exclusive control of the place where the object was located,

you may infer that [he][she] was aware of the presence of the substance and had the ability to control it.

If (defendant) did not have exclusive control over the place where an object was located, you may not infer [he] [[she] had knowledge of the presence of the object or the ability to control it, in the absence of other incriminating evidence.

Give if applicable. Duncan v. State, 986 SoM 658 (Fla. fth DCA 2008).

However, you may infer that (defendant) knew of the presence of the object and had the ability to control it if [he][she] had joint control over the place where the object was located, and the object was located in a common area in plain view and in the presence of the defendant.

Affirmative defense: Lack of knowledge of illicit nature. § 893.101(2) Fla. Stat. Give if applicable.

Lack of knowledge of the illicit nature of a controlled substance is a defense to the crime of Possession of a Controlled Substance. Accordingly, the defendant is not guilty of possessing a controlled substance if [he][she] did not know of the illicit nature of the substance.

You are permitted to presume that (defendant) was aware of the illicit nature of the controlled substance if you find that [he][she] knew of the presence of the substance and exercised control or ownership over the substance.

*255 If you are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, and all of the elements of the charge have been proved, you should find [him][her] guilty.

If you have a reasonable doubt on the question of whether (defendant) knew of the illicit nature of the controlled substance, you should find [him] [her] not guilty of possession of a controlled substance.

Affirmative defense: Authorization. Give if the defendant has satisfied Ms or her burden of production. See Wright v. State, m So.2d 1058 (Fla. 1st DCA 1983).

It is a defense to the crime of Possession of Contraband [In] [Upon the Grounds of] a State Correctional Facility if the defendant was authorized by the officer in charge of the correctional institution to possess the item [in] [upon the grounds of] a state correctional institution. The defendant has raised this defense.

If you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant had authorization from the officer in charge of the correctional institution, you should find [him][her] not guilty.

If the State proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant did not have authorization from the officer in charge of the correctional institution, you should find [him][her] guilty, if all the elements of the charge have also been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
