The one that correctly describes an effect of the Compromise of 1850 on escaped slaves and freedman would be: Members of both groups were captured under the Fugitive Slave Law.

The compromise of 1850 regulates the status of both escaped slaves and freedman during the Mexican-American war. During this period, some states started to give more rights to the slaves and freedman while the rest of them created harsher rules.
