It is not the severity of the punishment, but the certainty of getting caught, that discourages crime.

Displaying the ravaged corpse is not necessary, merely passing the word that Charlie was caught and killed as soon as he left the sanctuary of prison.

Of course, the free press will likely take pictures and report the news, but the gory pictures will likely be reserved for tradezines in crimefighting. Those distributed to newspapers and magazines will probably be taken from a more discreet distance to show trampled ground around a vaguely man-shaped lump, rather than a closeup of the damage.

Gee, I hope they remembered to leave enough of the head that Charlie could be identified from dental records. There sure isn't enough left of his hands for fingerprints to be much use.
