Yes, I think random non-technical homicide detectives might very well assume this. They're fishing for anything they can get, even if it's a 1% chance. Almost certainly the subpoena response from Amazon will be that they are not in possession of a recording.

Is there any suggestion that a system is in place to lie openly and hand over a recording privately? Or is that only for national security cases?

If a comment were keeping recordings they weren't allowed to make, and just lied to deny it is there a verification process that could reveal the lie?
