Someone just told me that it is a punishable crime for a Muslim to convert to another religion. This person said that in some cases a Muslim man can be put to death for converting to another religion. Is this true?

Yes, it is a crime to leave Islam. Those who leave Islam sometimes are misguided by others or raised without proper Islamic education.
This punishment is also prescribed in the BIBLE and TORAH for Christians and Jews.
Not only Muslims.
"And he should go and worship other gods and bow down to them or to the sun or the moon or all the army of the heavens, and you must stone such one with stones and such one must die. (Deuteronomy 17:3-5)"
Those who leave Islam must be put to death, because there is no reason to leave Islam.
