That was Mercedes Carrera (and her husband), it was earlier this year, and she was pretty comprehensively denounced after sexually exploiting a minor with her husband repeatedly. Note, if you will, the fucking difference. Nyberg, who was on the exact opposite side, continues to this day to have people claim she was framed and misquoted because she pushed the party line.
While I don't doubt you could find some mouth-breathing dipshit someplace who was trying to defend her, there was nothing resembling the cover-up there was on GAF and subsequently ERA regarding this kind of shit. In fact, in the past, whenever other communities that are not Social Justice communities dig this shit up, the result, as I said earlier, tends to be outright hostility towards the exposed pedophile.
Getting this situation requires specific traits, and while it's not limited to left or right, the traits do make it more common in Social Justice communities (who are extreme-left) in the current incarnation. The general setup requires strong central leadership, hostility to outside ideas, a close tie to said central leadership, and a strong push towards orthodoxy in their belief structures resulting in virtue being dictated by how hard the party line is pushed.
