You're damned right they looked the other way. People have been reporting this stuff directly to (at least) Hurricane Electric for quite awhile. They certainly knew of any criminal activity and their failure to address it until it was blown up in a major media outlet makes them culpable, especially since HE is not an "ISP" in the retail sense the law anticipates.
Its not a backbone ISP's right to regulate content. If we had backbones disconnecting ISPs on a daily basis for tiny disputes, there would be no internet. What if my cousin ripped me off, can I call Verizon and tell them to shut off landline service to my cousin because I say he defrauded me?
