The next time the brakes are stuck engaged, try opening a bleeder in one of the calipers to see if the pressure releases or not. If the pressure releases I would suspect a faulty master cylinder. If only one caliper is stuck, it could be a collapsed brake hose, stuck slider pins or a stuck caliper piston.
