But remember that ctime (last change to inode) is updated on chmod, chown, file rename etc. For debug purposes, put a -ls in the find ahead of the "-exec rm". That way it will recite the file (and mtime) before removal. And of course, if your cron job removed stuff, it will already be gone when you come in to look later with your manual find.
