How do I know if my 1994 Cadillac Fleetwood brougham RWD ac compressor is locked up or just needs freon?

The belt has been squaling for the last 2 days.
This morning the compressor pulley locked down and ruined the belt.
The belt started smoking.
It was blowing hot air and I am sure needed freon before this.
I took off the serpentine belt and tried to turn the pulley on the compressor.
It is locked down tight.
Was there a safety feature on these compressors when they got low on freon, to lock down like this and not turn to prevent burning them up?
Would refilling the system with 134A kick it back on?? I did notice the 10 amp fuse blew as well, replaced it and nothing changed.
Or is it time for a new compressor?
