Geralt would kill it it, not release it. He knows the danger of releasing something that could be lying and his priorities is Ciri, not the orphans.

Investigating the corpses outside, including the dead woman will prompt Gerald to question the killing if innocents. His choice of words for calling the spirit lying makes sense after hearing the spirit's answer.
