We mourn her as we mourn any other Jewish neshomo who was lost to anything Jewish. She knew no better; she ended up making her career in a field that is the truest definition of oilam hasheker and she succumbed.
It is the same situation with the girl who disappeared in the Midwest and is suspected to have used cocaine. She knew no better.
The only Yidden we don’t mourn when they peyger are true reshoim, whether self-hating like George Soros, frei like Madoff who davka ate pork, or “frum” (farkakte reshoim uhn mitzvos) like D-ek, Shereshevsky, or Levi Aron.
