If one of the slaves ran away to the northern states which didn't allow slavery and someone saw them and just decided to do nothing and just let the them go and keep running, that person would be in trouble and they might even go to jail for that. Because you need to return them so nothing bad happens to you.

In 1850 congress passed the second fugitive slave act. The new act set severe penalties for anyone who helped an enslaved person escape from their owner/slavery. It also gave people called special commissioners the power to order the return of freedom seekers to their owners. Freedom seekers had no voice in their own cases though.
