It someone in the south was robbed, and came north to look for his stolen jewelry, he was not allowed the same liberties as someone looking for an escaped slave. The north wasn't required to provide resources or suspend laws for someone looking for stolen goods. Citizens could not be forced into looking for the jewelry or thieves. If the searcher found the thief, there were burdens of proof and legal protections for the accused, which did not apply in cases regarding slaves.
