I have had fry in with my ghost shrimp without a problem. My shrimp usually stay at the bottom and the fry at the top of the tank.

Larger ghost shrimp might prey on sleeping guppy fry.
Possible...reliable reports from others say they have seen them grab the fry.
I had a couple in with mine for awhile and never noticed any attacks. I think they should be fed well if you are doing a number of mini feedings during the day for the fry. That hungry shrimp might be more inclined to eat fry than ones well fed!
