No Slavery has not been abolished in South Carolina or the United States of America for that matter. The 13th Amendment is often misquoted or not quoted at all. The 13th Amendment allows for slavery and involuntary servitude as punishment for crime and immediately following its passage in 1865, laws like the Black Codes were passed and prisons started filling up with formerly enslaved Africans and they would be leased back out to plantations and other businesses under the Convict Leasing program. Today, just as was the case prior to the passage of the 13th Amendment, Wall Street is heavily invested in private prisons for profit and corporations like the Corrections Corporation of America have contracts with States to keep the prison above 90% full and the United States of America imprisons/enslaves more people than any country on earth including countries that the American people are told do not have freedom and liberty and are oppressed. Slavery was never abolished because if it were, there would be no slavery exception clause in the 13th Amendment or any of the State Constitutions. If anyone tells you it has, they are either ignorant of what the language of the 13th Amendment means or they are deliberately lying.
Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
Yes,South Carolina became a slave state.
Very much so, and it was the first state to secede from the USA.
The people of South Carolina paid heavily for this when Sherman conducted his punitive raid there in February 1865. He hit them even harder than Georgia, burning down the state capital.

South Carolina State is located in the state of South Carolina.
The slave state of South Carolina had placed themselves in an unusual situation with regards to the number of slaves there in 1860. More than half of South Carolina's population were slaves. If slavery, in the eyes of the white population, was abolished all at once, the white population would be outnumbered. As an aside, when Senator Calhoun from South Carolina saw the "slave problem" he pushed for the annexation of Texas in order to spread the slave population more evenly in the South. This was made easier when he was appointed to be the US Secretary of State.
