Mother was just released from prison on approximately December 17, 2004 and went to the Carlisle Police Station to seek assistance in securing the child from Grandparents. The officer on duty recommended that Mother allow the child to stay with Grandparents and then contacted Grandparents to warn them of her behavior. The officer advised Grandparents to go to Children and Youth or an attorney to get an emergency Order to prevent the return of child to Mother. Grandparents met with Children and Youth Services, Elizabeth Browning, who advised that CYS could not take any action at this time because the child was currently in a safe place, but advised them to seek an emergency Order of Court to protect the child. 26. Father is currently incarcerated at the Cumberland County Prison for dealing drugs, theft, and driving under a suspended license and not expected to be released until May 2005. 27.
