I cant reboot. Shutdown freezes at sending SIGTERM to processes

Question

I could use some advice. For the past 4 months or so I have not been able to do a full shutdown or reboot. When I run the shutdown -r now or reboot commands the process starts but freezes at Sending SIGTERM to processes. At this point I can switch to diffrent terminals with Ctrl+Alt+F? but I cant type.The only thing I can do is hold my power button down to shut off. I have been searching online  fore awhile and restored my rc.shutdown script to the original backup I have from months ago but I am still having the same issues. Ill attach my local and shutdown scripts
Thanks for taking a look.

So installing the testing initscripts seems to fix the reboot command, but still the most commonly used command shutdown -r now still wont do a full reboot.
/etc/rc.local.shutdown
#!/bin/bash

fsck_all() {
fsck -A -T -C"$FSCK_FD" -a -t "no${NETFS//,/,no},noopts=_netdev" $FORCEFSCK
# Single-user login and/or automatic reboot after fsck (if needed)
fsck_reboot() {
# $1 = exit code returned by fsck

# Custom hooks in initscripts #
# Hooks can be used to include custom code in various places in the rc.* scripts

# function_name() {
# add_hook hook_name function_name
# It is allowed to register several hook functions for the same hook
# Is is also allowed to register the same hook function for several hooks

# sysinit_start: at the beginning of rc.sysinit
# multi_start: at the beginning of rc.multi
# single_start: at the beginning of rc.single
# shutdown_start: at the beginning of rc.shutdown
# sysinit_end: at the end of rc.sysinit
# multi_end: at the end of rc.multi
# single_end: at the end of rc.single
# sysinit_udevlaunched: after udev has been launched in rc.sysinit
# single_udevlaunched: after udev has been launched in rc.single
# sysinit_udevsettled: after uevents have settled in rc.sysinit
# single_udevsettled: after uevents have settled in rc.single
# sysinit_premount: before local filesystems are mounted, but after root is mounted read-write in rc.sysinit
# sysinit_postmount: after local filesystems are mounted
# shutdown_prekillall: before all processes are being killed in rc.shutdown
