If successful, empty trash and delete or transfer files off of the HDD. Empty trash again.
If no success, post back for other options.

May 26, 2015 9:32 AM in response to Jenepher macbookby OGELTHORPE,Then you have two options. One is Target Disk mode:

That will enable you to access the files in your MBP and enable you to delete them from your MBP HDD.
The other option is to take out the HDD and install it in an enclosure. Connect it to another Mac via USB and again delete files off of the MBP HDD.
In both cases, do not forget to empty trash on the destination Mac. Otherwise the space will not be allocated for new data.
Ciao.
