Danny Arce is definitely a suspicious character.
The image of him in front of the Dal-Tex building when he said he was somewhere else is suspicious in itself.
The fact that it's a good match to a figure from a secret CIA training camp in Florida makes it more suspicious, and the fact that another figure from the training camp can be matched to another figure in Dealey Plaza propels the suspicion even higher.
But, the top reason to suspect Danny Arce of complicity is the way Joseph Ball handled him. The fact that Joseph Ball had the nerve and the confidence to ask Danny Arce directly, pointedly, and straight as an arrow: "You see this guy? Who is he?" about Doorman and elicit a verbal answer means one of two things:
Either Joseph Ball had a prior meeting with Danny Arce and worked it all out OR somebody else arranged it with Danny Arce and passed the word on to Ball that Arce would cooperate.
It certainly was not the case that Joseph Ball was just searching for the truth and would go wherever it led him. Does anybody believe that? Does anybody believe that if Danny Arce or anyone else had said, "That's Oswald in the doorway" that Joseph Ball would have been A-OK with it and just put it in the Warren Report? Do I have to point out that there wasn't a snowball's chance in Hell that that would happen? Do I have to point out that Joseph Ball was as determined to find for Oswald as lone gunman as anyone could possibly be?
You could say that Joseph Ball took a big chance asking Danny Arce OUT LOUD who Doorman was. Because once he says it out loud, he can't take it back; you can't make it go away. It's like the genie that escaped from the lamp; you can't get her back in. And that is precisely why Joseph Ball didn't ask Lovelady that way. He didn't ask him at all. Instead, he just told him to draw an arrow to himself in the photo. Ball wasn't going to take any chances with Lovelady.
Try to imagine for a moment the Warren Report with everything it contained, but with the addition of one person saying that it was Oswald in the doorway. That one addition would have completely nullified, destroyed, and eviscerated the Warren Report. It would have been the only thing that people talked about.
"Did you hear that so-and-so said that Oswald was standing in the doorway right during the shooting? You think it's true? This changes everything."
So, what would have happened if one of the witnesses had blurted out that Oswald was in the doorway? Do you think they would have put it in the Warren Report? They would NOT have put it in the Warren Report, and they would have stricken it from the record.
But, they didn't want to do that. They really preferred NOT to get into that kind of jam. And that's why Joseph Ball was so careful. That's why Joseph Ball played with arrows. And the only reason why Joseph Ball asked Danny Arce directly and non-evasively who Doorman was is because he knew the answer he was going to get. He not only knew it; he knew it with confidence; he knew it with certainty.
To those of you who are CTs, don't you think Joseph Ball was part of the cover-up? Well, anyone who was part of the cover-up as much as Joseph Ball was could only trust someone whom he knew was also part of the cover-up. And Joseph Ball TRUSTED Danny Arce.
And if you don't agree with that, then you have to assume that Joseph Ball gambled on Danny Arce. And I don't think Joseph Ball was a gambling man. I don't think Joseph Ball was the type to leave anything to chance. And there was no one more driven than Joseph Ball to take the investigation where he wanted it to go, which was to Oswald's guilt. Ball KNEW that Arce would help him. He knew it.
