Recover recording from deleted account?

I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but I am supposed to check...

About a month ago we had an employee leave the company.  The account was deactivated.  Now today someone is looking for a recorded meeting from that account.  When I went to look the account is totally gone, like it was deleted (which I didn't do).  

I imagine that recording is gone, since I don't see it anywhere in our account.  And...do deactivated accounts get deleted eventually?  Or do I need to figure out if someone else deleted the account?

Thanks!
