After considering the case, Ms Stuthridge decided not to record a conviction.

That's the way I'm reading it.

Doesn't work that way at all in my US state. Every conviction is recorded and you can apply to have your record expunged or receive a “certificate of employability” five years after your conviction.

Well, this happened in Melbourne. I don't know how it works there. But it probably doesn't work the same as in your US state

It definitely does not! I think that's why people might be confused, thinking they missed something.
