May need to check the power wires and connect at battery and also starter. May need to check main fuse as well or the starter fuse. If you say it has a "new" starter them I would imagine someone installed it and it's possible that something was not proper or an issue was created. Before assuming an engine is bad just check all connections. Also, an engine can be turned with a wrench on the crank.
