She now has a new boyfriend currently released from prison after serving 10 years for murder,and told me today that she wants to move the kids to his house that is only 1 bedroom he is also unemployed and drugs is a problem as well. Is there anything that I can do to protect my grandchildren?

You can file a petition for relative custody if the kids have been living with you, or in the alternative you can call DCF (not recommended).
