Her .husband, Michael Wieg ner, had a ruptured spleen and a punctured lung. The Mowatts flew to Denver Thursday night and were taken to their daughter's hospital room by a nephew, Ross Ager, who had met them at the airport. There they tearfully greeted their bandage-swathed daughter and planned to return to her room today to "talk over a lot of things we have to discuss." Captured in Stolen Car Jesse Eastman, 35, a Sioux In dian who escaped with Wiegner from the institution Monday, was captured at Brighton, Colo., just north of here, driving a car stolen in Denver earlier in the day. He had avoided capture by fleeing afoot after the police chase that sent the" Wiegners' car crashing through a barricade and over a 15-foot embankment at the end of a dead-end street here. Mrs. Wiegner. told police from her hospital bed Thursday that she was not kidnaped. Instead she said she accompanied her husband and Eastman willingly. "I really love him. I love him very much," she said.
