You should immediately discuss your concerns with the police and CYS.

If the mother is to be charged criminally, that will usually be done by the police agency.

CYS primarily oversees the safety and placement of children.

You need to inform both agencies (police and CYS) what this woman is planning.

I suspect she's going on the lam to parts unknown.

Once the police get wind of her smelly plans and CYS hears what you know, I'm betting things will be sped up, or the child will be left in your care.

I would not allow her to have the child, unless and until, she produces a valid court order!
 
If CYS places the child back with Mom, Grandma/pa CANNOT withhold the child from Mom - custody hearing or no custody hearing.

Doing so would jeopardize any change the grandparent has of getting custody.
