Definitely not - Residco is an aircraft leasing company based in Chicago.

The plane is 23 years old, originally delivered to Martinair in 1992. Asking for trouble to run a company with just an airframe of that age, with maintenance always likely to be an issue as a result.

This was pretty much doomed from the outset.

I'm also not sure who the leasing company is - http://http://rzjets.net/aircraft/?typ=19058 suggests it might be Wilmington Trust Company, who also lease a large number of aircraft.
