    Were these pictures taken with the iPhone. If so, reset the Photos App as shown below, then select Camera Roll, then Select, and then run your finger across all the photos you want to delete and delete.

     

    Resetting the Photos App. Close Photos completely from the app switcher window by double clicking the Home button and swiping up the Photos preview pane until it disappears from the screen. Then do a forced restart. Hold down the Home and Wake/Sleep buttons at the same time for about 15-20 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
