ROVNER, Circuit Judge. Selina Schutt, her three young chil- dren, and her boyfriend, Jamayl Wash, were driving into her apartment complex in Fort Wayne, Indiana, when shots rang out. Wash’s Hyundai Sonata was hit with a barrage of bullets, including one that grazed the top of his scalp. Schutt saw her recently estranged ex-boyfriend, Odonis Parker, shooting from the side of the building. She grabbed her children, ran, and called 911 reporting that her ex-boyfriend, “Odonis Par- ker,” had shot up a car and was trying to shoot her friend. When the police arrived, Schutt reported that her ex-boy- friend, Parker, who was wearing a red hooded sweatshirt, shot at her. Two witnesses in a nearby apartment, Devin Pol- ston and Barbara Rogan, could not identify the shooter by name, but they agreed that he was wearing an orange or red hoodie and carrying a big, long gun that required two hands to hold. Rogan saw the shooter run up some stairs to the high- est floor of a nearby apartment building. Wash had never met Parker and also could not identify the shooter but testified that the shooter was wearing an orange or red hoodie. The police officers’ investigation of the scene uncovered a live round of 7.62 ammunition and a spent shell casing near the Sonata, and bullet holes in the grille on the front of the car. They found a cell phone lying in the grass near Schutt’s apart- ment building and a Ford Fusion in the parking lot with a red hoodie lying across the center console. As the police were collecting evidence, Parker walked out of a neighboring apartment building, and when Schutt iden- tified him as the shooter, the police took him into custody. He had two sets of keys with him. As the police pushed the but- tons on one key fob, the lights of a Ford Fusion alighted, and the trunk popped open. The police officers towed the Fusion No. 20-1231 3 to the crime scene garage where they found the following: a men’s 2XL red Chicago Bulls hooded sweatshirt between the console and the driver’s side seat, Parker’s debit card, and several pieces of paperwork with Parker’s name on them, and an SKS rifle in the trunk with one magazine and a round of ammunition in the chamber. There was no evidence of any tampering with or damage to the door or trunk locks or the ignition. A grand jury charged Parker with being a felon in posses- sion of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). The only element of the crime at issue was whether Parker possessed the firearm. Prior to trial, Parker filed a motion to which the government objected, requesting voir dire questioning of pro- spective jurors on various topics including the importance they might assign to DNA evidence. The district court judge declined to ask these questi
