13 and to the history, character and condition of the offender,
14 the court is of the opinion that:
15         (1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is
16     necessary for the protection of the public; or
17         (2) probation or conditional discharge would deprecate

20         (3) a combination of imprisonment with concurrent or
21     consecutive probation when an offender has been admitted
22     into a drug court program under Section 20 of the Drug
23     Court Treatment Act is necessary for the protection of the

11 to a defendant charged with a misdemeanor or felony under the

8         (1) the offender is not likely to commit further
9     crimes;
10         (2) the defendant and the public would be best served
11     if the defendant were not to receive a criminal record; and
