Unless there are other facts you did not disclose, you would not be at financial risk in this situation. Check with a Minnesota attorney to be sure, but I believe you will find that:
There is no liability to you for what your husband did with his mother's money.
You are under no duty to pay a single penny to your husband's sister.
From your description, if you want to free yourself of future threats of financial trouble, you may want to talk to a Minnesota divorce attorney as well.
