Default A/C compressor not enguaging

I checked the pressure in the lines and the needle went all the way back around to zero and got caught on the little stopper peg. Air compresser will not enguage. I have no knoledge of what was done to this car. Ive not been under the hood of it since I bought it. Seems to me I was sold a car that someone destroyed the ac in.
