Yes, I also think Grima was originally from Rohan, and in the beginning he derved King Theoden justly (and I believe Gandalf says something like this in 'the King of the Golden Hall')!
Saruman bought him, by offering him to rule Rohan for Saruman, with Eowyn. People did not dare interfere for Theoden still was their King and Grima was cunning. It takes courage to stand up against your King. And when Eomer at last did so, Grima had him thrown in the dungeons in the name of King. Saruman was in control of Rohan, until Gandalf came and released Theoden from Grima, and Saruman.
