My niece is 6 now. When she was 2 her mom and boyfriend beat her and we're on drugs. My brother had gotten full custody of my niece and has for the last 4 years. My brother got hooked on meth, he lost his license and continued to drive without a license. He ran from the cops in his vehicle and went to jail. Tested positive for meth but avoided the charge because he was getting charged for the fleeing and eluding. He's been out of jail since December 2018. He's back on meth. His fiancé apparently knows and my parents just make excuses for him. His daughter is being left at home with him while his fiancé works. He is unstable and cannot stay clean. I want to take custody of my niece. While he was in jail I had her the whole 6months. How far fetched is it for me to obtain custody?
