Ryan Hodson, the 17-year-old co-accused of manslaughter in the death of toddler Mason Jet Lee, has been granted bail.  Hodson is one of three people charged with the manslaughter of the 21-month-old, along with the child's mother, Anne Maree Lee, and stepfather, William Andrew O'Sullivan.  Mason was found at his Caboolture home on June 11, after suffering peritonitis, brought on by a ruptured duodenum. Medical experts believe he was injured on or around June 6 when his small intestine was torn.  All three accused allegedly failed to provide Mason with appropriate medical care.  Hodson appeared at the Brisbane Supreme Court today after he was denied bail at the Caboolture Magistrates court last week.  The Department of Public Prosecutions could not justify why he should be kept in custody until a prospective trial.  Mason Jet Lee was found at a Caboolture home on June 11. (9NEWS)  Hodson told the court in an earlier affidavit was "petrified' of jail, and pleaded to be on bail while he awaited further proceedings.  Crown prosecutor Sam Bain had argued Hodson was at risk of not appearing at future courts dates as he had told an informant at the Caboolture Watchhouse he planned to move to NSW to avoid the charge.  But Justice David Jackson noted Hodson's age and the possible harm of keeping a young person in custody until at least the second half of 2017.  "(Hodson) is, when all is said and done, a 17-year-old young man," Justice Jackson said.  Mr Bain said Hodson was also at risk of interfering with witnesses including his girlfriend who has given evidence she told Hodson that Mason looked unwell and needed help.  But Justice Jackson found there was no significant risk if conditions were put in place to stop Hodson from talking to her.  Justice Jackson also questioned the DPP's assumption that Hodson would be safer in custody given a prisoner had been recently attacked in Queensland.  As part of his bail conditions, Hodson will live with his mother in Brisbane’s north and be required to report to police three times a week.  © Nine Digital Pty Ltd 2016
