Well, if existing Indiana law allows the homeowner to use deadly force against an illegal entry, why would someone under the new law have to say they didn't know it was the police? It sounds like the key factor is if it is an illegal entry.

Nope. The IN Supreme court made it clear that the State of IN no longer recognizes the right to resist UNLAWFUL entry by the police. (I explain in detail here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2761352/posts )
