2000 Dodge Intrepid car wont start

I have a 2000 dodge intrepid. The transmission went out then the engine, both were replaced by mechanics. Then the battery went, I put a new one in. Then about a month later on new years eve I came outside and it wouldn't start. I got a jump and we went home. When we pulled in I noticed that the "trunk open" light was glowing, not bright enough to say that it was open, but glowing. I didnt think about it and shut the car off checked the trunk. It was closed. And went inside. The next morning I came out and it wouldn't start. Wouldn't even roll over. I tried to jump it from my friends Sebring but it wouldn't take a jump. With a new battery and the sneaking suspision that I might have a bad alternator, should I try jumping from a truck to get more amps? And what about the glowing trunk light?
