Prior to and during the Dred Scott case, only the lawyer who represented him gave him any help. The Supreme Court ruled that no African Americans, whether free or enslaved, had citizenship in the United States, a decision that enraged abolitionists and empowered slave holders. After the decision, Scott's owner married an abolitionist, who persuaded her to return Scott and his family to his original owners. By this time, his original owners were also anti-slavery, and he and his family were freed.
