They had to sue him, so they likely have to pay off their own 2 years of legal bills. 100k/each isn't going to do much after that, and especially if it has to make up lost wages or income after a state legislator publicly called you a sex offender.

I think it's okay for these proud and fierce people to just take care of themselves in this one.

That's a good point. The legal defense fund might still be a good idea, with enough publicity it could get donations.
