    Are you claiming there was a soviet-union-wide conspiracy to smear Beria, consisting of falsified documents and spanning over 20 years? Involving not only the Russian SFSR, but Georgian, Azerbaijani, Abkhazian communist parties as well?

    Khrushchev and his cronies managed to invent in a couple of months a trove of evidence against Beria that was corroborated by many others (co-conspirators, no doubt).

    OR, Beria was a monster.

    I’m gonna go with Occam’s razor here.
