Dude seemed cartoonishly cruel, people knew he was molesting kids.

Any good scholarship on wtf they were thinking leaving him in power and free?

The opposite, if there were something bad there, it would be used long ago to bash Beria, and through him indirectly Stalin and USSR (which was the reson black legend of Beria was manufactured in the first place). Read "Khrushchev Lied". Same was with Stalin's private archive, when it was opened anticommunists made quite a ruckus about how much atrocities and lies would be found inside and then immediately shot up when it contained not only nothing of sorts, but also proven that Stalin was man of integrity between his private and public figure.
