Sounds like the GM needs to step up and remind them of the "Don't be a Jerk" rule, or more subtley direct them back to play. If the GM failed to act, you could always politely ask the GM to act, and if the player is ignoring the GM, express your dislike of the situation and back the GM verbally, or IMO the best case situation. Have the GM, or coordinator discuss this with the player outside of the table. Not knowing the group dynamic, it's hard to give exact advice, but there is some general advice.

How do you keep the play going and the adventure on track (and not get your PC killed), when a party member decides to "kill everyone in town"? Remember the PvP rules...
As a GM, I would frankly have let them do it, but it would rapidly get them separated from the rest of the party (and we all know what happens when they do that). Remember, Pathfinders save important artifacts and other such goodies. They don't have to save idiots from themselves.
Also, if they persisted, I would bring up DBAD, and ask them to play nice. If they refused, they get to leave.

This would be when as a fellow player, I’d explain that Pathfinders don’t do that sort of thing (killing random NPCs) as that makes Pathfinders look bad and could get them kicked out of a town, country, or even region.
As a GM, I would say roughly the same thing. If they persisted, I’d have the town guard show up and arrest him and suggest that the rest of you stand back and let it happen.

As a player, you cannot force another player to quit a certain action. As a GM, they *should* put their foot down. I'm sorry you had to deal with a disruptive player. I would ask the organizer to talk to the player after the fact. If the problem persists, then one of two things needs to happen: the GM needs to ask the player to leave, or the GM needs to take off the kid gloves and turn the PC evil and call it a day. Random murder of NPC's is about as clear a case of evil as I can think of.

It's bundled in the zip file that you the long GtPSOP in.
There's only one paragraph that explains what Pathfinders are, however:
The Pathfinder Society Organized Play system is a worldwide fantasy roleplaying campaign that puts you in the role of an agent of the pathfinder Society, a legendary league of explorers, archeologists, and adventurers dedicated to discovering and chronicling the greatest mysteries and wonders of an ancient world beset by magic and monsters. The campaign’s home base is sprawling Absalom, the so-called City at the Center of the World. A Pathfinder explores the dark alleys and political intrigues of Absalom between far-flung travels to the most interesting and exotic locales in the world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.
