Legally law enforcement cannot chase a criminal outside of the country that the crime took place in. The criminals can still be arrested in Canada or Mexico but it is not as likely.,
Southern slaves during the war went from liabilities to assets. When the north were taking the south out, the south realized they had way more slaves, than anything else left. They started putting the slaves out there to do battle, and keep the south in the fight....imagine that? The north is opposed to slavery, and the Africans are the slaves in the south, and fighting the north to keep things the way the were....President Lincoln got wind of who the north was truly fighting, and signed the Emancipation Proclamation, to make the southern slaves have no reason to fight, but get out of the way, so he could figure out a way to keep that union together. Many were able to flee to the North during the chaos and fog of battle. In addition, many then joined the ranks of the Northern military to help defeat the Confederacy.

It is estimated that about 2,000 fleeing slaves passed through Ohio a year between 1830 and 1860. The Pennsylvania Vigilance Committee claimed that it helped a total of 9,000 slaves flee from the south from 1830 to 1860.
The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was important to southern slaveholders because it required all citizens to assist in the capture and return of escaped slaves, strengthening the institution of slavery in the South by making it easier to recover escaped slaves and deterring others from attempting to flee. The law also provided legal mechanisms to support slaveholders in pursuing escaped slaves across state lines.
