We investigate the merger of a neutron star (of compaction ratio 0.1) in orbit about a spinning black hole in full general relativity with a mass ratio of 5:1, allowing for the star to have an initial magnetization of 10^12 Gauss. We present the resulting gravitational waveform and analyze the fallback accretion as the star is disrupted. The evolutions suggest no significant effects from the initial magnetization. We find that only a negligible amount of matter becomes unbound; 99 has a
