In what is a very disturbing story the son of Go Daddy founder Bob Parsons was arrested on domestic violence charges.
Fox10Phoenix reported:
The son of GoDaddy founder Bob Parsons is being accused of strangling and hitting his girlfriend in his Scottsdale home.
Robert Sean Parsons turned himself into police and has been charged with felony assault charges.
Robert lives on the same property as his father, it’s where the alleged domestic violence incident took place.
Police say Robert surrendered after he learned he was under investigation for dometic violence. Court records reveal that the alleged incident occured at his Scottsdale home when his girlfriend confronted him about text messages and photos of other women on his phone. He’s accused of strangling his girlfriend several times and hitting her in the face.
“I have some serious concerns for the victim’s safety,” said a judge.
The story goes on to describe some of the behavior by Parsons which is pretty ugly. You can read the whole story on Fox10Phoenix.com

The sole goal of this blog is not to make you better domainers its to cover all news in and around the domain name industry.
While we are on the topic Mr Parson’s was also back in the news this week:

I would note that Raymond posted the story on his own.
“The sole goal of this blog is not to make you better domainers…”
A goal, I would add, that this blog pursues with a high level of enthusiasm and success!
You need that in an ad:
At TheDomains, our single-minded focus is on not making you a better domainer!
Doesn’t everybody kill elephants and strangle women? I could have sworn that was the norm. 🙂
His father is a trophy hunter and has uploaded a video having killed an elephant. So sorry I used them for my website!! Can’t get my money back.
If GoDaddy’s son logged into CPanel and reset my ReDirects… I’d at least know why this keeps happening.
Why should I care about this “news”?
Why should anyone care about most of the stuff that’s written in the domain space unless it makes your money who cares UDRP posts dont make me money I don’t care about those.
Surprised read “domestic violence” third party news bites through this medium : (
So what new!!
Another WHITE spoiled white RICH brat WHITE kid getting into trouble and with Daddy’s influence, he will get off free.
If he is Black or Hispanics or Asian, this is won’t be in the news.
He should have taken his anger and sexual energy off by hiking to the top of the Camelback Mountain in the 100s heat.
He was probably upset about not being able to use coupon codes any longer.
Must be missing something here. How does this relate to GoDaddy?
Conceptually, it could lead one to think I don’t like people who do things like that.
That thinking if led by example may seriously harm GoDaddy’s business, if for example enough people don’t agree with or like what they choose to do.
Groovy
And GoDaddy involvement is?
Sad news but regardless of who we are as people, rich, poor, tall, short, white, black we all have the ability to do good and bad.
He just happens to be in the spot light and so this is news.
I am sure Ray Rice agrees with you fully.
I thank you for posting this Michael… It certainly is newsworthy to anyone not a godaddy fanboi.
welcome all news related to domain name industry !I learn something from this news about godaddy founder and his family,also maybe his business style…thanks again!

maybe he found out that she has a hidden sedo account.
No need for posting this type of story here if the guy does not involve in Godaddy
management or domain related business. Please lets talk about domains and domain
activities.
Young Robert’s dad is a public figure, hence, the young man should mind his ways. GoEasyRobert.
I feel good because it is a form of new patent for a child referred to the domestic violence, have if taking a new patent for the market and industry of violence that is the specialty of Bob Person in Gofaddy.com
