violation of this Article or Chapter 579, RSMo.;
The proximity of the object to controlled substances or imitation

The existence of any residue of controlled substances or imitation
controlled substances on the object;
Direct or circumstantial evidence of the intent of an owner,
or of anyone in control of the object, to deliver it to persons whom
he/she knows, or should reasonably know, intend to use the object
to facilitate a violation of this Article or Chapter 579, RSMo.; the
innocence of an owner, or of anyone in control of the object, as to
a direct violation of this Article or Chapter 579, RSMo., shall not
prevent a finding that the object is intended for use, or designed
for use as drug paraphernalia;
Instructions, oral or written, provided with the object concerning
its use;
Descriptive materials accompanying the object which explain
or depict its use;
National or local advertising concerning its use;

A substance that is not a controlled substance, which by
dosage unit appearance (including color, shape, size, and markings),
or by representations made, would lead a reasonable person to believe
that the substance is a controlled substance. In determining whether
the substance is an imitation controlled substance the court or authority
concerned should consider, in addition to all other logically relevant
factors, the following:
Whether the substance was approved by the Federal Food and Drug
Administration for over-the-counter (non-prescription or non-legend)
sales and was sold in the Federal Food and Drug Administration-approved
package, with the Federal Food and Drug Administration-approved labeling
information;
Statements made by an owner or by anyone else in control of
the substance concerning the nature of the substance, or its use or
effect;
Whether the substance is packaged in a manner normally used
for illicit controlled substances;
Prior convictions, if any, of an owner, or anyone in control
of the object, under State or Federal law related to controlled substances
or fraud;
The proximity of the substances to controlled substances;
Whether the consideration tendered in exchange for the non-controlled
substance substantially exceeds the reasonable value of the substance
considering the actual chemical composition of the substance and,
where applicable, the price at which over-the-counter substances of
like chemical composition sell. An imitation controlled substance
does not include a non-controlled substance that was initially introduced
in commerce prior to the initial introduction into commerce of the
controlled substance that it is alleged to imitate. Furthermore, an
imitation controlled substance does not include a placebo or registered
investigational drug either of which was manufactured, distributed,
possessed, or delivered in the ordinary course of professional practice
or research;

substance by an individual for his/her own use or the preparation,
