Quick, 35 FLW 2451, 4th DCA, Jury instructions - Error to deny def's request for jury instruction on the affirmative defense of lack of knowledge that substance he possessed was cocaine where he testified that he did not know the glass pipe in which cocaine residue was found contained cocaine at exact time of his arrest. Error not harmless where lack of knowledge of what the pipe contained was def's sole defense.

Was not justified under the plain view exception.
