Need to delete selected files from trash

I can't empty the whole trash because I'm checking for missing files but I need to delete some because I'm out of disk space to zip anything. If I click " empty trash" in the right click with just one item selected, will it still delete everything?

Trash folder still show contents after emptying it? I empty the trash but the info tab still shows it has 2GB of data. I checked for hidden files but didn't find anything. Why is trash showing it has 2GB when it's empty?
