it prob depends on the state. either way if said abuser is still in the home I doubt custody would be returned with abuser there.
Unfortunately, it could be a major issue actually, should there be at some point a hearing to determine if dad will regain custody of either child. There is consideration given to whether the abuser was a "caregiver" vs a step-parent and whether that person will be remaining in the home or have access to the child(ren).
