False. Tom Robinson was found guilty (even though he was not) and was sent to prison. Although Atticus proves that Tom could not have committed the crime of which he has been accused, he is nonetheless found guilty due to the overwhelmingly racist social codes of the day. He panics in prison, attempting to escape, and it shot by the guards, who kill him by shooting to kill rather than in the leg to stop him from running further.
