Sharitha Golden also goes by the surnames Lee, Francis, and Knight.
But it's that last surname that matters.
Sharitha was the longtime and first wife of Marion Hugh Knight Jr., better know as Suge.
Sharitha was a force and prominent presence in the 1980s and 1990s in Suge's life and was an executive and producer at Death Row Records.
But it was the astonishing revelation and accusation by Suge in 2017 that his ex-wife and former record label security chief were behind the murder of Tupac Shakur, an accident, as it turns out because Suge claims the hit was on him, not Shakur.
Sharitha blasted that claim and ferociously denied any involvement in the murder of Tupac.
