A.
Any person under the age of twenty-one (21) years who purchases or
attempts to purchase, or has in his/her possession, any intoxicating
liquor as defined in Section 311.020, RSMo., or who is visibly intoxicated
as defined in Section 577.001, RSMo., or has a detectable blood alcohol
content of more than two-hundredths of one percent (0.02%) or more
by weight of alcohol in such person's blood is guilty of a misdemeanor.
1.
For purposes of prosecution under this Section or any other
provision of this Chapter involving an alleged illegal sale or transfer
of intoxicating liquor to a person under twenty-one (21) years of
age, a manufacturer-sealed container describing that there is intoxicating
liquor therein need not be opened or the contents therein tested to
verify that there is intoxicating liquor in such container. The alleged
violator may allege that there was not intoxicating liquor in such
container, but the burden of proof of such allegation is on such person,
as it shall be presumed that such a sealed container describing that
there is intoxicating liquor therein contains intoxicating liquor.
