Luke Tipene's manslaughter a 'tragedy that changed the lives of two families forever'SUPPLIED Promising league star and family man Luke Tipene. Vincent Skeen has been found guilty of the manslaughter of rising league star Luke Tipene. By all accounts Luke Tipene, then 17, was a good student who loved kapa haka and playing sports. "[Luke] shouted out it was a one-on-one and no one else should join in," Taine Tipene told the court. The central issue at the week-long trial was whether Vincent Skeen had murderous intent when he lashed out at Luke Tipene.
