BLUNT v. STATE

No. 4D01-1484.

831 So.2d 770 (2002)

Jackie BLUNT, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

December 4, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and David John McPherrin, Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Richard E. Doran, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Steven R. Parrish, Assistant Attorney General, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.

STONE, J.

Failing to instruct the jury on the element of guilty knowledge of the illicit nature of the substance in his possession is reversible error, notwithstanding his failure to request the charge. See Scott v. State, 808 So.2d 166 (Fla.2002); Chicone v. State,
