Ask your mom, why she choose the stepdad over your older sister. Apparently there was enough evidence to believe that she knew about it.

Some states have laws that make it a crime not to immediately report such abuse to the police. This is because in many cases its hard to tell if the other parent is condoning the abuse or not so to protect the child they typically place the child in the custody of a family member and arrest the other parent.

She might have been taken in as a material witness, or she might have been arrested for allowing the abuse to happen.
Without seeing the actual paperwork, there's no way to tell.
