How did TM files get in the trash...
never advised to micro-manage this TM database....this will corrupt the complex backup database
You do not want to be accessing TM via the Finder, use the TM interface
You can try deleting from a SafeBoot
Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support
no resolve—if you have to disable SIP, then reanable SIP immediately after your action in complete.
