Book excerpt: Research regarding the evaluation of alibis has been sparse to date. The current experiments were designed to assess how people evaluate and process alibi statements. It was hypothesized that people approach alibis with skepticism and that alibis elicit different processing from evaluators than do everyday memory statements. Experiment 1 used a cognitive busyness paradigm to assess the starting point from which alibi evaluators begin. Results indicated the cognitive busyness manipulation did not affect participants' ratings of believability of either the weak or strong alibi. The superficial evaluation hypothesis was advanced as a potential explanation for the ineffectiveness of the busyness manipulation--that participants who were cognitively busy were interrupted in their processing of the central facts of the case but were nonetheless able to use simple, peripheral cues to arrive at similar evaluations as non-cognitively-busy participants. Experiment 2 manipulated the timing and type of alibi schema to examine whether alibis are processed differently from a normal narrative story. All participants viewed the same narrative account; some participants knew prior to viewing that the account was an alibi whereas others discovered after viewing that the account was an alibi. In addition, some participants were told the guilt or innocence status of the alibi provider. Results indicated that when participants did not know the ultimate status of the alibi provider and knew that they were viewing an alibi prior to watching the alibi video, their recall was biased toward details occurring during the time period most relevant to the alibi. Knowledge that the account was an alibi affected participants' encoding, but not retrieval, of the alibi story. There was no clear support for the hypothesis that alibi evaluators approach alibis with skepticism, but there was support for the hypothesis that people encode alibi information differently than they encode an everyday narrative account.

But their plans are spoiled when one of Shuller's men catches them as they break into the stash house. Temperatures flare as the men capture Shuller's worker, Poncho, and force him to show them the goods. What they didn't expect was for Poncho's partner to be armed and very dangerous. An altercation breaks out and when the smoke clears, Nard, Poncho's accomplice, is the only one left standing. Thinking quickly, Nard cleans shop and makes his escape, but not before being spotted by a few neighbors. Not wanting to kill anyone else, he makes a mad dash for the streets but wonders if the witnesses will give up his identity. What he needs now is a plausible alibi. If he doesn't come up with one fast, it could mean life in prison, or death on the streets.

Munsey's magazines, where he was one of the more popular writers of the pre-1926 period, ranking as the closest rival in science fiction to Edgar Rice Burroughs.
