Legal Question in Family Law in Connecticut

Son Saturday my husbands estranged grandmother showed up at my home unannounced. I have never met the woman before then and did not know who she or her care taker were. My husband has not spoken to her in over 12 years. I opened the door and she told me who she was. My cat got out so I stepped outside to get her and these women entered my home and stood in the foyer. The grandmother then procceded to tell me that she knows he is abusive. Which he is not and I do not know how or why she would think this but that maybe if I cleaned my house he wouldn't be. I gave her my husbands phone number and asked them to leave. Last night she called my husband and left a voice mail that we have one month to clean our home spotless or she is calling the police. And that there is no reason our daughters hair shouldn't have been brushed already. It was 11 am on Saturday morning my one day off a week and my daughter was not feeling well so I was not hurrying her to get ready for the day. My house is not unsanitary and I have no reason to fear DCF as my daughter is fed, clothed, loved, not abused in any way, attends school every day so on and so forth. I called the nursing home where she resides and told them if she contacts us or shows up Jere again I will call the police for trespassing and harrasment. Is there anything else I can do? I do not need this woman trying to start problems in my life.

Notify the local police so that if you have to call them later they'll have a clue about what's going on. Don't worry, the cops are used to lots of crazies, but at least you won't have to start from scratch with them.
