The crossword solution for the term 'Slave Scott' is DRED. Dred Scott was an enslaved African American man in the United States who unsuccessfully sued for his freedom and that of his wife and their two daughters in the Dred Scott v. Sandford case of 1857. The Supreme Court ruled against Scott, finding that as a slave he was not a citizen and therefore could not sue in federal court. This ruling also declared that the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional, thus allowing slavery in all U.S. territories.
