In the email, I didn’t threaten them with lawyers. I literally begged them to stop. If they had kept sending those complaints, I would have lost all my traffic.

To this day, I almost have a heart attack every time I get an email from Google with the subject line "Google notice regarding copyright-related content."

I wish you the best of luck in figuring this out.
Annoying as fuck, but all you can do is just 301 redirect those URLs, and they'll probably get ranked again.
