By the sounds of it you don't ownership or read write permissions of the file(s) you are trying to delete, check in the trash, see what files are remaining.
Go to trash highlight the files the remain, press cmd + i, check the permissions, if you know the password to the admin, or the account that owns said files press the padlock in the righthand corner, and add read write permissions for your user, then try and delete again.
