The original timeline was used to help the public try and find the missing child. The family told the police that they announced to the party that she was missing between 3 and 3:10 am. I see no reason to question that assertion because it would have been easily verified and remembered by many people. EVERYONE was ;alerted at the same moment and asked to stop what they were doing and begin to look for the child.
I really doubt there is a lot of confusion or disagreement about the timing of that alert. I bet everyone looked at their watch or phone when that urgent alert first went out.
The defense attorneys claims make no sense. He says that no one was aware she was missing yet at 3:30 am. However, we know that the police arrived at 3:47 am. Does that seem possible ?

It's not the case, I say it eye to eye," the lawyer said, outraged to see his client "thrown to the lions" and "labelled as enemy number one" to the public. According to him,"at 2:45 a. m., little Maëlys is with her grandparents at the wedding, they ask her to go home with them and she wants to stay, a testimony confirmed by the grandmother's sister who adds that at that time, she is going to play football with little Maëlys in the children's room".

"What has happened in the last three months is an insult to justice, an insult to the girl's parents," Alain Jakubowicz thundered, appalled. "You're treating this man as a monster, while in the file, there's no shade of a hint of the beginning of an element that could suggest, and everything has been searched, that he may have even the slightest pedophile inclination."
Hi katydid, I can only assume that the lawyer has the entire file of the case, and that this file contains statements of people who claim they saw Maëlys after 03.00 hrs and later.
If the prosecutor charges the defendant with abduction of Maëlys at 02.45 hrs and people state that they saw her in the room or the hall at that time and also at 03.15 hrs, then the lawyer must lawfully point out that the prosecutor has no case unless of course the prosecutor explains with good reason why he dismisses these statements.

If the case goes to court, it is up to the court to make a decision about the disputed elements.
IMHO this case is still confusing. I would probably go with the timeline of the prosecutor, but I find it strange that after the abduction of little Maëlys, first, NL would return to the party within 40 minutes and second, when he does, nobody notices anything about him, except that he did not appear interested in the search. He would have been minutes away from committing a crime, probably a murder! Nothing about his clothes? Hair? Scratches? Sweat? Breathing?

It reminds me a bit of the Madeleine McCann case. In mainland Europe it is more common for sleeping kids to be left unattended by an adult in a specific area, while the adults socialize elsewhere, than it is in the US.
I think someone went in and led her out. Very scary. They need to interview and locate every single guest and staff member.
What time were the gendarmes / police first called? Who called?
What are the chances she just wandered off and had an accident and shes laying somewhere where nobody has looked?

What kind of an accident? Something like meeting an adult who put her in his car and raped and killed her? That kind on 'accident'?

That comment really says it all. The defense's tactics are nothing but smoke and mirrors. I'd say that France needs to bring back Le Rasoir National, but that would be too quick a death for Lelandais. For him, they need to bring back drawing and quartering--with very slow horses.It is not excluded that the little girl disappeared at 2:45 am but that, in the general atmosphere, her loved ones didn't realize her absence until half an hour later.
