Explanation

The clues that the Mayor was involved in a long trial and as a result suffered failing health require that the blank mean something like sick. None of distraught, exonerated, inspired, or vindicated mean sick, so eliminate choices (A), (B), (C), and (E). Debilitated means sick, so select choice (D).

Hence option D is correct!
