"I'm not guilty" stories (6)
I believe the answer is:
alibis
(Other definitions for alibis that I've seen before include "They're useful to have if accused of crimes" , "Proofs of absence from the scene of the crime" , "Defences of being elsewhere at times of crimes" , "Defences to charges - was elsewhere at the time" , "Defences - was elsewhere at time of crimes" .)
