The Cinnamon power management settings on Mint have options to suspend OR lock my ThinkPad when the lid is closed but I can't seem to find a way to make it do both.

Yeah, nothing seems related to locking the screen.
Perhaps try some cinnamon related place and they might know how to get the related info (I haven't used cinnamon).
