Someone texted an image I do not like, so I deleted it from the text string on my iPhone. The offensive photo still shows up when I tap the little "i" information button next to the sender's name in iMessage. How do I get rid of this stupid image?!?!?! It no longer shows in the text, but it lives on forever in this dumb image / attachment history. ☹

Thank you!! I "selected" the images to delete, then tapped the trash can icon at the bottom.
Originally I was expecting a process similar to the iMessage image delete...where a menu of choices pops up when you tap and hold a particular pic.
However, deleting from the sender's image history appears to be more like the process of managing images in the "photos" application.
Thanks again for the assist. :-)
