Use the good old Search-Mailbox cmdlet: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/search-mailbox?view=exchange-ps
The -SearchDumpsterOnly switch will target the content of the RecoverableItems subtree (note that it includes more than purges, so best preview the items before you decide to delete them).
Alternatively, you can use some low-level tool such as MFCMapi or EWSEditor. Or do it programmatically.
