Where does Mr Grasse get his information? Wikipedia? You really should try and do a bit more research Mr Grasse.
The gibbet – as you quite rightly state – was used AFTER the criminal was dead, as a warning to others who might have wanted to commit similar crimes, so what is so sacred about a murderers body once he has been executed? Why should they have been allowed to enjoy a Christian burial?
One other point I feel I should make is that there is a variation called a gibbet iron, which is on display at Atwater Kent museum in, where else? Philadelphia US.
