Road Rage Deputy Avoids Jail, Gets Probation
21 Jul
Summary
- Deputy Devin Mills received two years probation for a road rage incident.
- He was accused of grabbing a teen's phone during an off-duty confrontation.
- His employment with the Sheriff's Office is still under review.
Devin Mills, a 57-year-old corrections deputy, received a two-year supervised probation sentence on July 16, 2026, following a no-contest plea to a charge of burglary of a conveyance. This resolution came after an off-duty road rage incident on February 10, 2025, in Port St. Lucie.
During the confrontation, Mills was captured on cellphone video by two teenagers, apparently reaching into their vehicle and taking the recording device. The video evidence became crucial in the subsequent investigation and arrest. His probation is set to end on July 15, 2028, but could conclude earlier if he fulfills all conditions.
These conditions include a mental health evaluation and treatment, and maintaining no contact with the victims or their families. While the criminal proceedings have concluded with a probation sentence, Mills' employment status with the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office is currently undetermined as an administrative review is still ongoing.
