Hans from Frozen was turned evil by the rock trolls.

In the song Fixer Upper, they say 'Get the fiance out of the way and the whole thing will be fixed.' Shortly after, we see Hans be evil for the first time in the film.

In addition, at the beginning of the film, the grand troll notes that it's lucky the magic hit her head and not her heart, because the head can be persuaded. So we have motivation, capability, and a stated intent.

this is intriguing. I'm dying on the hill that Hans never started out evil, there's literally no indication at all in the first half of the movie and some of his actions prove the opposite. Plus the motive always felt insufficient (why would he go for the younger Princess and not elsa if his intention was to take the throne)

Exactly! He even saves Elsa, who was the blocker to an easy marriage with Anna. Then right after the trolls, he leaves Anna to freeze to death.
