Radley, thanks for stopping in. The trouble with posting on TL is that you can't make a quick comment and then duck out, sometimes you actually have to do some digging...which is not a bad thing! Anyway, I just looked at your 12/13/05 update here. I do note, to your credit since these wouldn't seem to bolster your case, that you clear up some items in that update, like
The narcotics task force did have a warrant for Cory Maye's apartment.
and
The warrant itself didn't specifically allow for a no-knock entry.
My bolds. Other items in your update do bolster your case. To me the case boils down to: "Should it have been reasonable for Corey to know that the guy busting into his home was a cop, or not?" If the police did not identify themselves before entering, I think Corey was well within his rights. If they did, well... iyo, will this case come down to a "he said, she said" as to whether the cops did in fact identify themselves before entering? Or is there no (present) claim from the police that they announced before entering?
