Deleting items 'securely' will take a long time.

If it is taking too long, I suggest that you terminate the process and alter the settings to empty trash normally.

Ciao.

Relaunch the Finder, then from the Finder menu bar, select
Finder ▹ Preferences... ▹ Advanced
and uncheck the box marked
Empty Trash securely
Try again to empty the Trash.
