If Sallie Mae has done anything against the law in collecting this debt from y'all, then sick your local or state DA's office on them.
If your husband's co signature will be considered binding, however, then that obligation remains his as long as he's alive. Make sure any assets in his name are made payable to you upon his passing, because Sallie Mae can claim anything left to probate. So long any such assets bypass probate, Sallie Mae ought not be able to make posthumous claims on them, depending on Georgia probate law, which I advise y'all read up on now.
I'm assuming you don't feel in a position to hire a lawyer about this, but if that's the case, y'all ought to try and get at least a consult on this.
