Is it true that a criminal conviction always results in a prison sentence?
No. A reference article on conviction states that after conviction the court determines the appropriate sentence, and that a court may order a discharge instead of convicting, while a peer-reviewed source notes convicted men sentenced to probation rather than prison. Together these show conviction does not always result in a prison sentence.
