The "burden" is in proving that the sexual contact did take place and that the victim was a 'minor' at the time of the offense. The same 'burden' of proof as with any other sex offense, or criminal case.

In the absence of a valid medical opinion as to why that minor MUST be sterilized, and only then if there is evidence of extreme mental retardation AND rampant uncontrollable sexual misconduct such as rape by a male minor retarded person. In the case of a minor constantly acting out in rampantly sexual ways, but absent mental retardation, no one can do that.
