You're on the right track checking with the volt meter.
Now try to narrow down the voltage drop.
Start with the meter leads stuck directly into the battery posts. If the voltage drops to near zero, most likely the battery is defective. Or with heavy cables and good connections, a locked starter can draw one down to near zero, but the cables will jump, heat up, and the starter will get hot, and make a "singing" sound.
If the reading stays high at the battery, start moving one lead at a time, systematically searching for the voltage drop. If you make it all the way to the starter, testing from the actual stud going into the case, and the case itself, then the problem is in the starter.
If everything leans toward the engine being locked, loosen the starter, see if possibly the drive gear is jamming into the flywheel gear, trying to ride over the gear teeth binding it up.

I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
