Conway Man Sentenced to 20 Years in Prison in Connection to 2018 Burglary

A man from Conway has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. 37 year old Devin Outen was sentenced for attempted first-degree burglary after being on the run for over a year following his conviction of trying to burglarize a 71 year old woman’s home in 2018. A Horry County jury convicted Outen in February 2020 of attempted first degree burglary for the incident but Horry County Sheriff’s officials uncovered his ankle monitor near the courthouse and a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. Outen is being held at the J. Reuben Long Detention Center on charges of failure to appear and escape.
