Codye Ian Thomson and Kaine Raymond Thomson-Gleeson charged with murder of Chloe Mason

Lawyers for two brothers who allegedly fatally shot a woman in the street before fleeing interstate have revealed their next step in court.

Two brothers accused of murdering a 23-year-old woman who was gunned down in a suburban street in Queensland plan to defend the charges against them, according to their lawyers.

Codye Ian Thomson, 29, and Kaine Raymond Thomson-Gleeson, 32, were arrested without incident in parkland off Civic Pde at Logan on January 6.

They were each charged with the shooting murder of Chloe Jade Mason, 23, on December 22, 2024.

Police allege Ms Mason was chased down and shot by the brothers on Railway Pde, in Caboolture, shortly after midnight.

Their matter was briefly mentioned in Caboolture Magistrates Court on Monday, where neither man was required to appear as they each remain on remand.

The court was told a brief of evidence was still required to be handed over to the brothers’ individual legal teams.

The matter will be next mentioned on February 24.

Outside of court, Mr Thomson’s lawyer, Brendan Beavon told media his client intended to “defend the matter” before the courts.

“I’m not going to comment at the early stage, the brief (of evidence) hasn’t been provided yet so I’m not in a position to make those comments about what the defence might be,” Mr Beavon said.

“There’s CCTV footage as part of the brief so we don’t even know who or what that reveals at this stage.

“I won’t make any comments of what the defence will be.”

Mr Beavon said Mr Thomson was “holding up alright” while in custody, despite being in an “unfamiliar environment”.

“He won’t be engaging in any formal records of interview with the police,” he said.

“The court’s given us six weeks for the brief to be disclosed and we’ll have to review it from there.

“I’ll go see my client in custody and have a chat about it.”

Mr Beavon confirmed his client and Mr Thomson-Gleeson had been attempting to hand themselves into police before they were arrested.

Footage of the arrest shows the brothers were metres away from the police station in Logan when police took them into custody.

“The investigation was quite serious so they took some time to come forward,” Mr Beavon said.

His comments come a week after Mr Thomson-Gleeson’s lawyer, Ken Mackenzie, told media outside court his client “did not kill” Ms Mason.

Mr Mackenzie had claimed it was “not in dispute” that Ms Mason had turned up in front of his client’s house armed with a “rifle”.

“Kaine explained to the police he did not kill Chloe,” Mr Mackenzie said.

“And what he did, he did to defend his home and his family against a murderous attempt.”

Police will allege in court the brothers knew Ms Mason before her death.

Speaking to the media on January 3, Moreton District Detective Inspector David Harbison said an “altercation occurred” when Ms Mason attended a home on Railway Pde.

“It is alleged the deceased received a gunshot wound during that altercation and subsequently died,” he said.

Inspector Harbison said police had previously spoken to the two men during their investigation into the shooting, as one of the men lived on Railway Pde.

“The two male persons sought by police were located and interviewed as witnesses on that date along with a number of other witnesses,” he said.

“Those male persons were subsequently interviewed and released without charge, pending further investigations.

“At that early stage of the investigation there was simply insufficient evidence available to indicate their involvement with this (alleged) homicide.”

However, following further evidence from neighbours and members of the public, Inspector Harbison said police were “satisfied they had sufficient evidence” to bring the brothers before court.

Police had also found a rifle in the street following the shooting, which was still undergoing forensic testing.
