Jewish burial land isn't defined by being "consecrated". It is defined as a place where only Jews are buried.
In Orthodox tradition, if a non-Jew is buried in the same area, it is no longer considered a Jewish cemetery.
The term "Consecration" is sometimes used in Judaism to mean "dedication", but it is actually part of Transubstantiation, which doesn't exist in Judaism.

Why Jesus body was not properly prepared for burial?
The Gospel of Mark records that Joseph of Arimathea recovered the body of Jesus and wrapped him in fine linen ( a Jewish burial practice) and placed His body in a tomb. It also says that Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome had bought sweet spice, that they might come and anoint him (another Jewish burial practice) the very next morning. According to Jewish burial laws, burial of the deceased had to occur within 24 hours of the individuals death (Deut. 21:23). There just are not very many details in the Gospels surrounding the specifics of Jesus' burial but it does appear as if those who loved Him were trying to perform their duties with regards to providing a proper burial. Jesus' resurrection most assuredly halted the process.
