When emptying the trash, my mac crashes and restarts. Google tells me its a kernal panic or something?

I believe it to be some files that i have on an external HDD (NTFS) that i access using paragon.

My trash is empty when the drive isnt connected, but those few files crash it when it is connected.

From the get info tab it tell me that they are on my external HDD in a trash folder. However, omni disk drive says that that folder is empty.

How would i go about deleting these files? Opening it in parallels and showing hidden folders shows it as empty too.

Its not the end of the world that they are there, it is just painful that everyonce in a while i forget about them and my mac restarts!

Thanks,
Mike
 
Verified and repaired for both external and internal hard drives. Internal was fine, external it said errors were detected and couldn't fix as it was read only, guess because its NTFS.

My trash folder has grown since then! still says the files are still in .trash/501 and i can still play the music files so they are definitely there. Omni disk sweeper still says there is nothing in the trash folder on the external HDD.
