   A sick creep has been sentenced to serve five felony charges consecutively   
   after pleading guilty to raping his severely disabled stepdaughter.   
      
   Brian Kenneth Urban, 52, was hit with the sentence at West Jordan District   
   Court in Utah Friday, two weeks after the adult victim suddenly died. It   
   includes five years to life for each of his two rape convictions, and 1-15   
   years a piece for three counts of forcible sexual abuse.   
      
   Five weeks earlier, the suspect pleaded guilty to the five charges that   
   had been laid against him - after he was filmed committing the atrocities   
   by cameras the girl's mother to monitor her deteriorating condition.   
      
   Identified as 31-year-old Ashley Vigil, the victim had a rare disorder   
   called Rett syndrome, a genetic condition that affects brain development   
   in fewer than 1,000 people in the US, The mutation affects girls almost   
   exclusively, plaguing them with maladies that require round-the-clock   
   care.   
      
   It is in this state that Urban took advantage of her, leading him to   
   assert to a judge Friday how his male biology led him to rape the late   
   victim.   
      
    'It is obvious that my testosterone levels were elevated,' he said upon   
   taking the stand according to CBS's KUTV   
      
   He continued; 'During this horrible event I was in a dreamlike state where   
   reality felt like a dream,'   
      
   'I still today would never believe this was actually possible.'   
      
   The unspeakable event the suspect referred to occurred in October 2022 -   
   and came about after a doctor recommended to the mother of the victim she   
   set up cameras in her bedroom to monitor mysterious seizures she had been   
   having   
      
   Instead of gaining some semblance of what was going on, the cameras caught   
   Urban in the act, laying bare his behavior to all.   
      
   He was swiftly arrested, and convicted in October the following year.   
      
   Immediately after the discovery, when Ashley was still alive, her mother   
   and full-time caretaker Paula Vigil campaigned to pass a new law that   
   would help protect vulnerable adults in the same way kids and the elderly   
   are.   
      
   Billing the prospective guidance as 'Ashley's Law,'  Paula came up with it   
   to address the fact that there's no mandatory prison sentence for her   
   daughter's rapist, so she didn't know how long he'd be behind bars.   
      
   A rally seen outside the courthouse Friday showed how her continued   
   devotion to this, and how she's rallied support over the past year-and-a-   
   half.   
      
   They all arrived  in support of the family's fight to change laws   
   currently in place in Utah state, producing signs that asserted 'Justice   
   for Ashley', and Rett syndrome [isn't] a choice'.   
      
   More than a year before, it was revealed that due to her condition, Ashley   
   couldn't walk, talk, and, most importantly, fight back.   
      
   After Urban pleaded guilty to the five felony charges against him, Paula   
   lamented how a then-alive Ashley was plagued by seizures just before the   
   assault   
      
   'Her seizures had suddenly increased,' she told KUTV, recalling how she   
   had been struggling to eat and was losing weight.   
      
   At that point, she said, the doctor recommended she install a camera in   
   Ashley's bedroom to see when the seizures were occurring - but what she   
   saw was far worse than she could have ever imagined.   
      
   'Instead of catching the seizures, I caught him,' Paula told the station,   
   reiterating: 'In her condition, she [Ashley] can't move.   
      
   She continued: 'He had to completely undress her, move her to the couch,   
   and take her diaper off, to do what he did. Then he had to dress her and   
   put her back in her bed.'
