He was pierced "after" he died...
33But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water. 35The man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, and he testifies so that you also may believe.
In accordance with Roman law, all who were killed by way of crucifixion, to verify true death, the soldiers were to break the legs of the criminals (this also prevented them from attempting to run away if they weren't dead, after they were taken down from the cross). But, because the soldier saw Jesus was dead, he was instructed to pierce him in the side.

How was Jesus tOURCHERED?
Jesus the Christ was nailed through his wrists and ankles to a large wood cross, and left in agony. When this happens (being crucified), breathing becomes very difficult, and the person dies of suffocation. Many pictures and sculptures show Jesus being nailed to the cross through his hands and feet, but that is not how the Romans did it! A person nailed this way would tear away from the nails before they died. So they nailed through the wrists and ankles. Many think that the Roman soldier who speared Jesus in the side was trying to torture Him, but that was simply how they determined if the person had died, yet.
