I'm open to any and every idea you can throw at me. Let me know what information you need from me.
I know this is not very helpful, but you are doing something wrong: the str has the sd card as first boot option so, even if you somehow formatted the emmc, it will still boot from a sd card. so it looks like your boot sd carc is not right.
First you need to boot from an sd card and then you can mount the emmc partitions to see what damage has been done and what needs to be restored.
