Guards will kill berzerk merchants with glee.  I'm assuming these are dwarven merchants you don't want to kill.  If they're human or modded in (otherwise not your civ) you can give kill orders.

I'd just suggest some jail cells and wait it out.  Nobles suck, fact of fort.

I'd just deconstruct the trade depot. You don't sound like you're in dwarfy fun mode, you sound like you're "save my people" mode.

It sounds like the caravan has departed and he's locked the door, so deconstruction isn't viable anymore.  Otherwise he could buy them back, it's only a crime when they leave the map.

Just got back. I couldn't have deconstructed it, it was too late (I tried, nothing was left behind and they left immediately). Now, it's way too late, I had to save when I went somewhere (and forgot to back the other save up, just in case), so now opening up the depot is not an option. I have set up a way to kill all the traders, but if they are all dead will the guards leave the map (assuming they don't go berserk)?

In the past I made a habit of building merchant traps (floodgates to seal the merchants in, good, guards, and all), and only the merchants and their animals went insane, not the guards; those were perfectly fine when I set them loose on some invaders.

Don't need this thread anymore, I crushed the depot (and found out that destroys items as well, at least it's less lag) and let the remaining guards free. Crisis averted.
