Inspector Carmelita (spelled Carmalita by some sources) Montoya Fox is a character in the Sly Cooper video games, a member of Interpol who constantly chases after Sly Cooper and his gang. Her outlook on crime is very black and white, and with her shock pistol, she believes that any law breaker must be brought to justice. Carmelita is rigid in this view and pursues all criminals with equal determination, from murderers to jaywalkers to thieves like Sly and company. Carmelita is devoted to her job, but she is also a very emotional woman who must work constantly to keep her temper in check. She and Sly have feelings for each other, but their relationship is portrayed rather ambiguously throughout the series. In Sly 1 she is voiced by Roxxana Ortega; in its sequel, she is voiced by Alesia Glidewell, who also voices Krystal in Star Fox: Assault, and Carmelita's co-star, Constable Neyla. In Sly 3, her voice is supplied by Ruth Livier.

Though great at catching crooks, she has never been able to capture Sly, apart from the end of Sly 2: Band of Thieves, where Sly turned himself in in exchange for letting his friends, Bentley the turtle and Murray the hippo, free. Of course, Sly escapes and Inspector Fox is back to chasing him. Carmelita is nearly obsessed over Sly and catching him, which explains her anger and stress. She has a tendency to harm criminals in the process of capturing them, a way of venting her aggression. In the first game her captures of criminals are shown by paper headlines,which humorously state her attractivness. They also inform the player/viewer that she is Latin.

Carmelita is a superb acrobat, able to pull off moves that keep even Sly on his toes. Her weapon of choice is an electric shock pistol, which fires a burst of electricity capable of stunning its victims and destroying just about anything else it hits. She usually plays the damsel in distress role, caught in a situation that forces Sly to save her. This includes being captured in Clockwerk's gas chamber, being captured and almost hypnotized by the Contessa, and growing 50 feet tall while wearing the Mask of Dark Earth. After Sly saves her from a blast fired by Dr. M, she awakens him to find that he is apparently stricken with amnesia. Revealing her feelings for him and seeking to make sure he doesn't get hurt, she takes him with her, "convincing" him that he is her partner, Constable Cooper. Unbeknownst to her, Sly was in fact faking his memory loss so that he could develop his relationship with her. Even if she were to find out, it is unlikely that Carmelita minds being with Sly in a situation that doesn't involve chasing him or battling dangerous criminals with him.
