A witness testified she saw a woman crying as she was shot in her driveway, leading to the committal of two brothers for her murder. Chloe Jade Mason, 23, died from gunshot wounds just before Christmas in Caboolture. Codye Thomson, 31, and Kaine Thomson-Gleeson, 33, both knew Mason and now face trial after a hearing where testimony described the violent scene — including screams, gunshots, and the victim’s desperate struggle. The defense claimed self-defense, but evidence contradicted it: a neighbor who initially said Mason had a gun later admitted he was under drug psychosis and withdrew his statement. Both men remained silent when asked if they had anything to say, while supporters showed them affection. Neither applied for bail, and they were returned to custody as legal proceedings move forward toward trial in Brisbane Supreme Court.
