Emails will not delete

Thunderbird Email and messaging

I have Thunderbird running on Win 11. I have several email accounts, and 4 local folders. In one of the local folders, there are several emails, and the bottom 2 emails (as shown in the image) will not delete when I hit the delete button. When I do an "open in new tab" in Thunderbird, it opens a view that shows blank. How can I get these 2 emails to delete? and what is preventing them from being deleted via the delete button?

Try to rebuild the index file of the troubled folder.

Right-click the folder - Properties - Repair Folder
