It only stings more because the whole girlsdoporn fiasco eclipsed the brief moment he had for his site.

I was never involved with any of that, but from what you posted it seems the sponsor may have had an infringing domain, and an affiliate may have also had an infringing domain - not that any infringement by a sponsor was passed through to any affiliate.
If a porn site infringes with Pepsygirls.com and I send traffic from pepsygurl.xxx I'd expect to be in hot water. If I send it from pornsitex.com, I'd be very surprised to learn any ancillary liability would exist and I'd be shocked to see a RICO claim pass through.
I'm asking because I'd very much like to know if it has happened that way.
