If her name in the subscriber list is in mIxEd case,  try exactly
the same case on a delete command.  If not, (or this fails) can you
do a query with wildcards that will come back with just this user?
If so, you can delete with the same wildcard.  i.e.

Her proper address is [log in to unmask]

Try a:  QUERY NINEPATCHN FOR jane*
or:     QUERY NINEPATCHN FOR *@this*

If the query  returns her & her only (these examples may need some
refining),  then do a:

      QUIET  DELETE NINEPATCHN *@this*

Or whatever wildcard you wound up with.

P.S: Just curious, what is the topic of ninepatchn?
