Unless you have implemented the "soft delete" feature tracked 
in SAK-1525, the CONTENT_RESOURCE_DELETE table will do you NO 
GOOD whatsoever. The data in it is simply wrong and not to be 
trusted.

We are running SAK-1525 locally, but I also have an hourly 
cron job that builds a tree of symlinks based on the database 
metadata and keeps an archive copy of the output of a "find" 
on that tree going back 24 hours. It's not perfect, but it 
does give some idea of where the files were previously 
located.
