You want to use wp_delete_attachment(), not a custom query. The function does a lot more than a single query, it cleans out all of the attachment's data from the data base, and delete's the image files if there are any.

Are you sure that wp_delete_attachment() is actually being called? Are you sure it isn't failing before then somewhere?
