Guilds are organized to protect their members, teach new craftsmen in carefully controlled numbers (so as to maintain the guild members' income), control trade within their craft, and exchange information relating to skills.
Also, the guilds often have their own plans, often in conflict with all national interests, and there are many guild members who consider themselves Guild member first and subject of a king second.

 Edric (Dune) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He is a navigator of the Spacing Guild.
Like all Guild navigators, his body is mutated due to heavy use of spice: he has webbed hands and feet, is distinctly fish-like in appearance, and must live in a tank of melange gas.
After Paul was blinded by a stone burner at the end of Dune Messiah (an action engineered by the conspiracy), an action which eventually led to his walking into the desert to die, Edric is executed along with the other conspirators.

 [No title]
Navigation was facilitated by a special spice called MELANGE, a crop unique to a desert world outside of the Kethrian family called Arrakis (Dune), which was discovered over a century earlier through conventional hyperjump methods.
The Guild found that large quantities of the addictive melange was necessary to accurately transport vessels from one world to another, and that the long term effects of such overdoses included severe physical mutations and enhanced mental powers.
By the third stage (literally centuries later), the Navigator's powers reach his/her peak, but by then he/she will have mutated into a grotesque monster that must continually breathe the orange spice, and is so weak that it must live in suspensor weightlessness.

 Official ICE Forums - Disabling the Navigators
I think the navigators would not state an example, unless the murder of the navigator was in a place where it was seen by witnesses.
I don't think it is so easy to disable the navigators, most of the obelisks are inside cities or in the vincinity to cities that are not under Lorgalis control, so it is hard for him to destroy them there, and even if he did the navigators would probably replace the obelisks right away.
The navigators are a business organization, if he rumor that they slaughter entire familys because someone of them was killed would be incredibly bad publicity and they would loose millions of gold in lost transports.

While the Holtzman generator uses the Holtzman effect[?] to fold space and thereby faciliate traveling through space without moving, the Guild Navigator is responsible to find a safe path through the universe and guide the ship along this path.
This is accomplished under the influence of Melange in the form of the orange spice gas, which gives the Guild Navigator the limited form of prescience required for this job.

Lynch uses a number of elements from his earlier movies, for example the figure of the Space Guild Navigator, who has a strong resemblance to the alien baby in Lynch's first movie, Eraserhead, which also appeared in The Elephant Man.
Fans of the novel regard this as a bastardization imposed by Lynch's ego, because "" clearly describes what a Guild Navigator looks like and it is not what Lynch's Navigator looked like.
The Children of Dune miniseries most accurately portrayed what they really appear as: basicially near-humanoid, but mutated to the point that they have fins and look fish-like.
