Yes and no. In the animated series they did, she was softened a bit... yes, she was a thief and had no qualms about fucking with the Acme Detective Agency team, but she still had standards. If the kids hunting her were literally about to die, she would help them out and if someone else was in on her game AND being a thug about it, she wasn't above setting them up for a fall ether. She was played a bit more like a classier Lupin: she was stealing shit because it was fun and because she could, but she certainly wasn't going to let someone suffer serious harm for her fun unless they were a fucking monster. She even admonishes one villain for using guns.
Then again, that Carmen had black hair instead of brunette and isn't consider the "real" one by the story folks of the series so... *shrug*
