My sent folder is EMPTY but on the bottom it says I have 152 unread emails. How can I access these emails? They are taking up a lot of memory.

Unread messages are normally in your inbox, not your sent items folder.
What is in your inbox?
My inbox only has 3 unread emails and maybe 15 read emails. My trash is empty too. I can't figure out where the unread emails that are supposedly in my sent box are.
Even on the mail main screen it shown a 153 emails, but the folder is empty.
Is that a POP mail account or IMAP, do you know? If IMAP, it could be that there are 152 old sent messages on the server that your device is not downloading. Try getting mail with a web-based client on a desktop and see if there are items in the sent box there.
It is a POP account.
If you have that few real emails, I would just delete the account from the phone and recreate it.
Still wouldn't hurt to log in with webmail to see what might still be on the server, though.
