did you file a police report for the id theft? if so get copies and send to the credit card companies fraud division and they will work to remove the items.

You need to make sure that all the credit cards are closed and that she is not charging any more. Check your credit reports. Then call the banks and try to come up with a plan to pay them.

No, no, no. If your name is not on the card then you are not responsible for the debt. File a police report.
Provide that report to the credit card companies, then demand that the credit card companies provide you with a contract that has your signature. No signature means no responsibility for the debt.

See an attorney. He will know if you are legally liable.
