A study released in 2014 suggests that an untold number of innocent people have been executed since 1973.

Retentionists would reply to these statistics by insisting that this does not show anything intrinsically wrong with capital punishment, but only how it is administered.

Answer:True because Retentionist refers to someone who advocates for retention of capital punishment, they stand on behalf of why capital punishment retention is right.

Explanation:in this case retentionist will still stand by capital punishment as a means of frightening people from committing murder knowing that of they are caught , it will lead to this punishment . A Retentionist will never find capital punishment as wrong but more as how it is used.
