This part makes me believe that it will remove it from the DPs, but I'm trying to be sure before I turn the script loose.
System Center 2012 Configuration Manager cannot delete a package from a distribution point if a user has locked a network file.

You can delete a package from the site where it was created. System Center 2012 Configuration Manager cannot delete a package from a distribution point if a user has locked a network file. When you remove a package, System Center 2012 Configuration Manager removes it from the database. If the package was sent to child sites, System Center 2012 Configuration Manager removes the package information at those child sites. If a compressed version of source files for the package exists, System Center 2012 Configuration Manager deletes the compressed file from the site server. Does that help?

Do not open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails. I want to know if the cmdlet Remove-CMPackage will pull the content off of the DPs as part of removing the package, or will is just delete it from the console and leave the content orphaned on the DPs?
