concurs specially with an opinion.

SEXUAL BATTERY — VICTIM LESS THAN TWELVE YEARS OF AGE - F.S. 794.011(2)

Before you can find the defendant guilty of sexual battery upon a person less than twelve years of age, the State must prove the following two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

Elements 1. (Victim) was less than twelve years of age.

2. a. [(Defendant) committed an act [upon] [with] (victim) in which the sexual organ of the [(defendant)] [(victim)] penetrated or had union with the [anus] [vagina] [mouth] of the [(victim)] [(defendant)].]

b. [(Defendant) committed an act upon (victim) in which the [anus] [vagina] of (victim) was penetrated by an object.]

c. [(Defendant) injured the sexual organ of (victim) in an attempt to commit an act [upon] [with] (victim) in which the sexual organ of the [(defendant)] [(victim)] would have penetrated or would have had union with the [anus] [vagina] [mouth] of the [(victim)] [(defendant)].]

d. [(Defendant) injured the sexual organ of (victim) in an attempt to commit an act upon (victim) in which the [anus] [vagina] of (victim) would be penetrated by an object.]

The punishment provided by law for sexual battery upon a person less than twelve years of age is greater depending upon the age of the defendant. Therefore, if you find the defendant guilty of sexual battery upon a person less than twelve years of age and you further find that at the time of the sexual battery the defendant was eighteen years of age or older, you should find him or her guilty of sexual battery upon a person less than twelve years of age by a person eighteen years of age or older.

If you find that the defendant was not eighteen years of age or older but did commit the sexual battery, you should find him or her guilty only of sexual battery upon a person less than twelve years of age by a person under eighteen years of age.

Give if applicable However, any act done for bona fide medical purposes is not a sexual battery.

Definition Give if applicable “Union” is an alternative to penetration and means coming into contact.

Note to Judge In the event of multiple perpetrators, give instruction on enhancement, F.S. 794.023.

Note to Judge The option of the word “[with] (victim)” in 2a and 2c is provided to reflect the manner in which the crime was committed. See Coleman v. State, 484 So.2d 624 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986), at pages 627, 628.

LEWD, LASCIVIOUS, INDECENT ASSAULT OR ACT UPON OR IN THE PRESENCE OF CHILD; SEXUAL BATTERY F.S. 800.04

Before you can find the defendant guilty of (crime charged), the State must prove the following two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

Elements 1. (Victim) was under the age of sixteen years.

Give as applicable 2. (Defendant)

Subsection (l)[made an assault upon (victim) in a lewd, lascivious or indecent manner.] [handled or fondled (victim) in a lewd, lascivious or indecent manner.]

Subsection (2) [committed an act [upon] [with] (victim) in which the sexual organ of the [(defendant)] [(victim)] penetrated or had union with the [anus] [vagina] [mouth] of the [(victim)] [(defendant)].]

[committed an act upon (victim) in which the [anus] [vagina] of (victim) was penetrated by an object.]

Subsection (3) [knowingly committed a lewd or lascivious act in the presence of (victim).]

Definitions Give in all cases Neither the victim’s lack of chastity nor the victim’s consent is a defense to the crime charged.

Give when F.S. 800.04(1) is charged As used in regard to this offense the words “lewd,” “lascivious” and “indecent” mean the same thing. They mean a wicked, lustful, unchaste, licentious or sensual intent on the part of the person doing an act.

*1227Give when assault is charged under F.S. 800.04(1) An “assault” is an intentional, unlawful threat by word or act to do violence to the person of another, coupled with an apparent ability to do so, and doing some act which creates a well-founded fear in such other person that such violence is imminent.

Give when F.S. 800.04(3) is charged As used in regard to this offense the words “lewd” and “lascivious” mean the same thing and mean a wicked, lustful, unchaste, licentious or sensual intent on the part of the person doing an act.

Note to Judge There is no need to make reference to the words “without committing the crime of sexual battery” because this refers to forcible sexual relations. Lanier v. State, 443 So.2d 178 (Fla. 3d DGA 1983); Chapter 84-86, Laws of Florida.

CONTRABAND IN COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY (F.S. 951.22)

Before you can find the defendant guilty of the crime of (crime charged), the State must prove the following two elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

Elements 1. (Defendant)

[introduced contraband into]

[knowingly possessed contraband in]

[gave contraband to an inmate in]

[received contraband from an inmate in]

[took contraband from]

[attempted to take or send contraband from]

a county detention facility.

2. (Defendant) did not do so through regular channels as duly authorized by the Sheriff or officer in charge of the facility.

The court now instructs you that for purposes of this offense, “contraband” means:

Select definition depending upon item alleged

(any currency or coin.)

(any article of food or clothing.)

(any written or recorded communication.)

(any intoxicating beverage or beverage which causes or may cause an intoxicating effect.)

(any narcotic, hypnotic or excitative drug.)

(any drug of any kind, including nasal inhalation) (sleeping pill) (barbiturate.)

(any controlled substance, [item alleged] is a controlled substance.)

(any firearm.)

(any instrumentality that may be. or is intended to be used as a dangerous weapon.)

(any instrumentality that may be or is intended to be used as an aid in attempting to escape.)

Note to Judge: In event municipal facility involved, see statute. “County detention facility” means a county jail, a county stockade, a county prison camp and any other place used by a county or county officer to detain persons charged with or convicted of crimes, including the grounds thereof.

Definitions To “introduce” means to put inside or into. Give as applicable-Note to Judge: See p. 220 for definition of “possession.”

*12283.04(g) - VOLUNTARY INTOXICATION

A defense asserted in this case is voluntary intoxication by use of [alcohol] [drugs].

The use of [alcohol] [drugs] to the extent that it merely arouses passions, diminishes perceptions, releases inhibitions or clouds reason and judgment does not excuse the commission of a criminal act.

However, where a certain mental state is an essential element of a crime, and a person was so intoxicated that he was incapable of forming that mental state, the mental state would not exist and therefore the crime could not be committed.

As I have told you, [the intent to (specific intent charged)] [premeditated design to kill] [(other mental state)] is an essential element of the crime of (crime charged).

Therefore, if you find from the evidence that the defendant was so intoxicated from the voluntary use of [alcohol] [drugs] as to be incapable of forming [the intent to (specific intent charged)] [premeditated design to kill] [(other mental state)], or you have a reasonable doubt about it, you should find the defendant not guilty of (crime charged).

Give where other applicable crimes are general intent crimes Voluntary intoxication is not a defense to (lesser included crimes) (crimes charged in additional counts).

DUI MANSLAUGHTER F.S. 316.193

Before you can find the defendant guilty of DUI Manslaughter, the state must prove the following three elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

Elements 1. (Defendant) operated a vehicle.

2. (Defendant), by reason of such operation, caused the death of (victim).

3. At the time of such operation (defendant)

Give 3a and/or 3b as applicable a. [was under the influence of] [alcoholic beverages] [a chemical substance] [a controlled substance] to the extent that his normal faculties were impaired.]

b. [had a blood alcohol level of 0.10 percent or higher.]

Definitions Give as applicable F.S. 316.003(76) “Vehicle” is any device, in, upon, or by which any person or property is or may be transported or drawn upon a highway, except devices used exclusively upon stationary rails or tracks.

“Normal faculties” means those faculties of a person, such as the ability to see, hear, walk, talk, make judgments, and, in general, to normally perform the many mental and physical acts of our daily lives.

F.S. 877.111(1) (_) is a chemical substance under Florida law.

Ch. 893, F.S. (_) is a controlled substance under Florida law.

“Alcoholic beverages” are considered to be beer, wine, whiskey, and all other alcoholic beverages of any kind and description which are made for human consumption.

Note to Judge In appropriate cases, an instruction may be given on one or more of the presumptions of impairment established by F.S. 316.1934.

*1229ACCESSORY AFTER THE FACT F.S. 777.03

Before you can find the defendant guilty of being an accessory after the fact, the State must prove the following five elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

Elements 1. A (felony alleged) was committed by (name of person committing felony).

2. After the (felony alleged) was committed (defendant) maintained, assisted or gave any other aid to (name of person committing felony).

3. At that time (defendant) knew that (name of person committing felony) had committed the (felony alleged).

4. (Defendant) did so with the intent that (name of person committing felony) avoid or escape detection, arrest, trial or punishment.

5. (Defendant) was not related to (name of person committing felony) by blood or marriage as husband, wife, parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, brother or sister.

Note to Judge Define the felony alleged.

Proof of Intent The intent with which an act is done is an operation of the mind and, therefore, is not always capable of direct and positive proof. It may be established by circumstantial evidence like any other fact in a case.

Concurrence Opinion

SHAW, Justice,

specially concurring.

The last comprehensive review and revision of the Standard Jury Instructions in Criminal Cases occurred during the period 1977-81. We approved the report of the committee, with modifications, in April 1981. In the matter of USE BY the TRIAL COURTS OF the STANDARD JURY INSTRUCTIONS IN CRIMINAL CASES and the Standard Jury Instructions in Misdemeanor Cases, 431 So.2d 594 (Fla. 1981). The Schedule of Lesser Included Offenses included therein was grounded on Brown v. State, 206 So.2d 377 (Fla.1968), and the single transaction rule.

The schedule of lesser included offenses has not been reviewed and revised to conform it to section 775.021(4), Florida Statutes (1976), as amended thereafter by chapter 83-156, section 1, Laws of Florida. Section 775.021(4), Florida Statutes (1983), abrogates the single transaction rule by mandating that there be separate convictions and sentences for all separate offenses occurring in the course of one criminal transaction or episode. The statute, as amended in 1983, also mandates that offenses are separate if each offense requires proof of an element not present in the other and that this determination will be based exclusively on the statutory elements of the offenses, not the accusatory pleadings or the proof adduced at trial. The effect of the 1983 change was to define and limit lesser included offenses to those offenses whose statutory elements are completely subsumed within the greater charged offense, i.e., those which are not separate offenses. This requires that two basic changes be made to the schedule of lesser included offenses. First, because *1236permissive lesser included offenses (category two) are based on the accusatory pleadings and proof at trial and their statutory elements are, by this Court’s definition, not subsumed within the charged greater offense, they are, by legislative definition, separate offenses. Consequently, category two offenses, if truly permissive, cannot be instructed on as lesser included offenses and the entire category must be deleted from the schedule of lesser included offenses. Second, the definition and method of determining separate offenses must be rigorously applied to category one, necessarily included lesser offenses, to ensure that each category one offense is in fact statutorily subsumed within the charged greater offense and not a separate offense.

I agree with the recommendations and changes contained herein because they are necessary in order to ensure consistency within the schedule as it now exists. However, because we have never tasked the committee with reexamining the schedule in light of section 775.021(4), the changes perpetuate the inherent errors which result from faulty policy premises, i.e., the single transaction rule and Brown. Accordingly, I call again for a comprehensive review and revision of the schedule of lesser included offenses and Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure 3.490 and 3.510 to conform them to section 775.021(4). For a fuller examination of these faulty premises, errors, and flaws, see my dissents in Wilcott v. State, 509 So.2d 261 (Fla.1987), State v. Wimberly, 498 So.2d 929 (Fla.1986); Linehan v. State, 476 So.2d 1262 (Fla.1985); and Green v. State, Shaw, J., concurring in result only, 475 So.2d 235 (Fla.1985).
