My Foster Daughter's abuser lives 3 blocks away from us, what can I do?

(throwaway account, also this is my husband and I's first foster placement so I am not well versed in the laws around that) We've had her for three weeks now. She has been in the system her whole life, even adopted by her aunt, but aunt gave her up. She was with a nice family for a while but she was sexually abused during visits by bio mom and bio mom's boyfriend. She disclosed to the nice family she was with around December 2025, mom and BF were arrested in April. Mom is unable to make bail, but I just learned today that BF made bail so he is OUT. I was told he lives in the same town as us, with his mother. I looked on white pages for him and his mom and his address is 3 BLOCKS AWAY, the same address is listed as his mother's previous address. I will have a meeting with the case worker tomorrow. I am wondering how I should bring this up? what can they do if anything? Would I get in trouble for using white pages? Is there not a law that he should not be able to be within a certain range of my foster daughter?
