They didn't want to risk any chance that the three would tell. The people from the company says that people fall under greed in the face of great amounts of money. The company doesn't exactly know the three that well, so they are worried, even by a small chance, that one of the three gets greedy and tells someone.

They also don't want to kill people, especially women. They leave Lawrence to get eaten, they believe Horo is dead already, and they plan to kidnap Nora. Thus, they can prevent any one of the three from telling. Or so they think.
Overall, they're too assumptive that wolves will eat Lawrence, and they have no idea that Horo is a wolf. Nora... might be in trouble here.
In other words, they think everything will go their way...

Can see what you mean here. Don't lose anything by getting rid of the three and making sure they don't say anything. Though it's not like the three have any reason to say anything. They are part of smuggling gold and if told they won't be in a good place. Seems like an unnecessary step for them. Maybe its just greed. If they get rid of them then they don't have to pay any money.

Plus I guess if your getting involved with something that could get you taken out by the church you'll do some things like this.

Just another thing. Horo just looked damn cool when calling off that wolf that was getting a bit too close. Even that one isn't stupid enough to mess with a wolf of Horo's caliber.
