"as French citizens are required to carry identification papers. If they are stopped and cannot show them, they can be fined."

Which made me think of that already, how are they going to fine a "dead" person?

They can do it but the fine will bounce. Or they could take the person to the police station to be identified if/when they find out that the person uses invalid documents of a deceased person. It could maybe help if police stopped her for ID because her problem would then also become their problem.
