Roger and Penny Scaggs seemed a poster couple for family values. Evangelical Christians living in booming Austin, Texas, in the mid-1990s, they were respected leaders in their church and community. As Roger diligently worked his way up the high-tech corporate ladder, Penny kept a pristine home and coached similarly devout young women on how to be perfect wives. But on a windy March evening, this godly woman met the devil head-on. And when the police discovered her lifeless body—repeatedly bludgeoned with a lead pipe, then mutilated with a knife from her own spotless kitchen—they were shocked by the rage and savagery behind her slaying.

The Good Wife is a startling true story of greed, hatred, betrayal, and an unimaginable murder—a tale of the dark decay that can be hidden behind a façade of saintliness when a marriage seemingly made in heaven descends into hell.

A great police procedure and forensic science descriptions. You’d hope all law enforcement would do the same. Fascinating human story.

This is a good, well-written, and certainly well-researched, with good explanation of Texas law as well. Not my favorite narration but still could follow it very well.

Very good!

This story/event is a mirror into the human being. It is so so sad what humans do to each other.

The case is interesting, a bit reminiscent of the Chad Daybell mess what with the husband discussing remarriage so soon after the death of his wife. It’s crazy how many choose murder over the “disgrace” of divorce, especially among very religious folk. Written with respect although a bit dreary at times.

Interesting, a bit dry

Well-written. Fabulous narrator. The book gives lots of detail and background, which I enjoy, but is still engaging. There is some interesting history provided of societal trends impacting the case and the context. Solid true crime book. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

Great True Crime Book

An even handed and fair approach to a tragic story albeit predicable story. Wife appears to actually embrace her life has a subservient wife and even teaches classes to other young wives, on how to be, in my personal opinion, a doormat, but in the evangelical world. I guess . it is called having a "godly" marriage. Many bible verses used as basis for mandating a man to be the "head" of the household and dismissive of the wife as near childlike. She needs to bury who she is, any intellect she has, any desires and aspirations need to be subverted so as to only serve her man, and please him, all with a plethora of bible verses to back up that world view. I must say cringe worthy to listen to sometimes. As hard as she tried to make that work, it is an untenable life. And so it unraveled. If you are at all a fan of true crime stories, this is not an uncommon ending, for people that live in the evangelical bubble.

well preformed totally engaging.

The case is itself pretty dull, and the author adds so much trivial detail that I lost interest. In 2023, I don't need a breakdown on how fingerprinting works. The interviews with detectives and witnesses are also very impersonal and sound like press release statements.

So Much Padding
