![Bobbi Kristina Hospitalized -- Whitney Houston's Daughter Rushed to the Hospital [UPDATE]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/13/0213-whitney-hero-2-248x127.jpg)
Catwoman is now a crime fighter ... or at least the woman who played Catwoman is.
Cops apprehended a man suspected of stealing $25,000 worth of jewelry from Julie Newmar's home back in 2008 -- and authorities say the actress is responsible for cracking the case.
According to law enforcement sources, 76-year-old Newmar -- who played Catwoman on the old "Batman" TV show -- was trolling through the Internet recently, when she "discovered the items for sale on Ebay."
Authorities say they were able to track the items back to a man named Robert Ouriel -- a former acquaintance of Newmar. Ouriel was eventually arrested and charged with grand theft -- if convicted he faces up to 3 years in prison.
The lesson: You mess with the kitty, you get the claws.

"acquaintance..."
in other words, Old Girl was banging the foreigner.....
Did she happen to write him a note, starting with "To Wong Foo...Thanks for everything..." ??
good for catwoman. What a loser Robert Ouriel is. Hope he rots in jail.
Do you guys hate women? The woman solves a crime the largely male police haven't and you take a backhand swipe at her by writing she was "trolling" the internet?
Give it a rest.
I wonder if this is the Robert Ouriel I know from NY, who poses as a lawyer.
Guys not playing with a full deck. Bo, you getting outfitted for prison garb.
I am Catwoman, hear me purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I am VERY impressed! Julie Newmar has to be in her 60s or 70s, and she is technologically-inclined, and smart enough to solve her own crime. My Mom, who is 68, won't touch a computer with a ten foot pole.
Those Batman TV shows were a loooooooooooooong time ago, but I remember seeing her in it and she was so over-the-top clownish sexy it was like a sex volcano went off on screen. She was on just about the same time as "I Dream Of Genie", which featured another nose-wiggler who has built like a dream, or a genie, or a catwomen (take your pick, it was all cartoonish anyway). Batman and Robin were portrayed as introverted computer game geeks who never had a response for Ms Catwoman. Kind of like the moron on I Dream Of Genie who never showed much concern for the true beauty (Barbara Eden) who was the daily co-star, or in fact, quite obviously the star of the show.
