Nancy Guthrie Activist Group Says Their Help Was Turned Down ... Need Proper Permits!!!
UPDATE
4:19 PM PT -- Fox News reporter Matt Finn received further clarification from the Sheriff's office about this incident ... chalking this up to a "lost in translation" moment.
Pima County officials say they told the volunteers they need PERMISSION to go on private property -- not a PERMIT to look for Nancy.
The Pima County Sheriff's Department tells me it did not tell a Nancy Guthrie search party that it needs a permit. The Sheriff's office says it doesn't even issue permits for searches. Sheriff's office told the party that it needs *permission if it goes on private property. @MattFinnFNC
1:40 PM PT -- The Pima County Sheriff's Dept posted a response to volunteer groups wishing to assist in the search for Nancy on her property. They shared a 3-part statement on X, saying ... "Private Search Parties: Volunteer search groups have inquired about being in the area. Per the Sheriff, they were asked to please give investigators the space they need to do their work."
They continue ... "We appreciate their concern, and we all want to find Nancy, but this work is best left to professionals. PCSD has volunteer opportunities if they wish to get involved with the department. Private property laws apply and it is up to each individual property owner to grant permission for someone to search their property."
The Madres Buscadoras de Sonora -- the Mexican activist group that wants to help find Nancy Guthrie -- won't be allowed to search for her, they say ... not without getting the proper permits first.
Two members of the organization -- wearing shirts and holding flyers featuring Nancy's face -- spoke to reporters outside Guthrie's home in new video circulating online. They say they came all the way from Mexico to aid in the search ... but were turned away.

Maxwell says Mountbatten-Windsor is going through an even more difficult time than his sister -- because while he and other family members stand behind her, he thinks the royals have abandoned Andrew.
