I have two corrupt files on my Mac mini and I can't delete them

I have two corrupt files evidently on my Mac Mini desktop that I cannot get into the trash with the following error. I've tried a ton of things...nothing. Anyone got good ideas to keep me from jumping? (Don't get crass. LOL)

Startup in Safe Mode and try trashing them, then restart normally.
