Might be bad battery cables.

Check all connections and grounds first. If the battery cables look good, move them around a bit. Might be broken inside but look good on the outside.

Try taking off the serpentine belt. Every so often you hear about an AC compressor that locks up and prevents the engine from spinning.

DO NOT drive without the belt, just crank it to see if it turn over. Briefly starting ot won't hurt.
