SANTA ANA â A private detective who admitted he tried to set up a Costa Mesa councilman for a false DUI and tailed the cityâs former mayor using a tracking device was sentenced by an Orange County Superior Court judge Friday to one year in jail.
The personal liberty laws were a series of legislations that were implemented in the United States between the 1800s and the beginning of the civil war. These laws were a direct response to the Fugitive Slave Acts of 1793 and of 1850.
One has to wonder if these folks think that the personal liberty laws passed by northern states to block enforcement of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 were merely symbolic. Iâm sure northern blacks spared the agony of getting dragged off by some slaver didnât think so. And Southern states didnât either.
