Tracy,
Have you talked to your brother at all about the situation? Are they taking the baby because they feel they have to? Are you interested in taking the baby? (I guess you would be the step-aunt?). As crazy as it is, in the CPS system, you probably still would be considered family.
I would first call your brother and SIL and just feel them out. If you have a feeling they are going to dive deep into this and you feel the baby is in jeopardy, I would call CPS. Just tell them the facts and nothing else. Unfortunately, as someone else said, unless there is anything to prove they are unfit (like an arrest), they generally will get temp custody. That is why it drives me crazy that family does not have to go through at least a basic quick homestudy, fingerprints, etc.
