In WA state is an innocent spouse liable to pay restitution for crime the other spouse was convicted?

Washington is a community property state. No joint bank accounts and all assets held separately. Innocent spouse did not benefit and was not found to be culpable in any way.In WA state is an innocent spouse liable to pay restitution for crime the other spouse was convicted?
Only the person who is ordered to pay must pay. But you can't argue that since his money is half yours then if he pays that's the same as forcing you to pay. That's a bogus argument.
