Help! The female Clerics of Life are getting naked with me!

I'm not quite sure how I should handle a situation so I thought I'd ask for opinions.
After being gone for a long time, I'm now running my Monk on the Enhanced Edition server. He's still fairly low level so I've gotten help from a series of Clerics of Life. They aren't doing quite what I've wanted and sooner or later they wade into fights and have gotten themselves killed when I'd rather they stayed back & used their slings (although at least once she saved me from dying when she did that).
This happened earlier this afternoon where we were in the West Benzor Slums fighting some Rogues. In this case, 1 of the rogues sneak attacked her. One second she's on the ground saying that she can't heal herself. The next second there's a flash of colors and she's standing there with only a bikini on & with 1 hit point. I killed the rest of the rogues, healed her, and then we left. But my questions is, what happened to her stuff?
I had a previous unfortunate incident where an Ogre scored a crit on me and sent me to the fugue. When I got back to that location, she was there (in a bikini again) but her stuff was all gone again.
This is a problem for me because in both cases I'd spent a fair amount stocking those Clerics up after they lost their possessions. Prior to this instance with the rogues, I'd gotten her a mace, a +1 sling, +1 chainmail armor, and a +1 small shield. And I'd gotten her most of that same stuff before the incident with the goblins and the ogre. And it all vanished each time.
What's expected to be done for these NPCs? Do we just release them when they lose all of their possessions? Are we expected to outfit them again? My monk is lawful so he wants to follow the rules. On top of that, I don't want to clog up the game with useless objects, either. There are already 2 dead bodies out there from my previous experiences. I don't want to create an army of useless NPCs out there for the server to handle.
Hopefully I'll get better at this and won't leave as many bodies of one-time henchmen in my wake in the future but I wasn't sure if I should let her go here or get her re-stocked with low grade materials?
Thanks,
