I think that when people die of over doses, addiction, suicide, reckless behavior and the like, those things should be spoken of negatively. I was listening to something on the radio shortly after Anthony Bordain killed himself where they said that celebrity suicides can precipitate additional suicides, but this tends to be less common when the celebrity suicide is spoken of in negative terms. An example given was Kurt Cobain, whose suicide did not appear to trigger a rash of other suicides and this is attributed to Courtney Love speaking publicly about his suicide in negative terms. Note: negative does not necessarily mean angry (although that's okay) or disparaging. It could mean being clearly sad and heartbroken.

That said, there's a difference between speaking negatively about the manner of a person's death and speaking negatively about the person and who they were in life. It may be a difficult line to walk sometimes, but it's possible to do it.
