    Photos synced from a computer can only be deleted by syncing with the same photo library, that is, computer.

    If they were synced to your phone, they can only be removed by syncing them off with iTunes.  Create an empty folder on the computer you normally sync your phone with.  Then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the photos tab and select to sync the empty folder you created earler.  Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  This will remove any photos on your phone that were synced to it from a computer.
