Steve Nodine's not so secret life Watch Video
"I totally think Steve was a different person out of work," said Chassity Ebbole.
Ebbole, owner of L.A. Body Art, has known Nodine for years. She remembers one particular night she spent with him.
"This was back in 2003 for the Snoop Dogg concert. And after I tattooed the promoters and we all made contacts, I was invited to the VIP trip to the concert and I took the invitation. And I stepped into the limousine, and there was Steve. And Steve and I knew each other and it didn't surprise me that he was there," Ebbole said.
Ebbole said Steve made himself known, and he never gave much thought to how he came across to others.
"I just remember, Steve had a drink and he was just shucking and jiving and having a good time with everybody," Ebbole explained.
No one seemed to ever question Nodine on his behavior out of work.
"We would see him in the bars, and you know, it's not a secret that Steve liked to drink, that's not a secret at all and he was very much a butterfly. You'd see Steve here and there and there and there. Nobody stopped for one minute to say, 'Hey wait a minute, this is a person within authority within our city council.' Steve had the ability to hang out with the common man, have a blast, then go over to Government Plaza and handle business," Ebbole said.
Nodine also had a love for women, despite the fact that he was married.
"Steve was a flirt, hands down and across the board. Any female out there is going to tell you Steve's a flirt. That's not a shock either; that's common information," added Ebbole.
