This criminal action destroys the subjectively constructed idea of the home as the safest space and challenges the feelings of safety in it (Brantingham, Brantingham 1995; Maguire 1980). This study investigates the effects caused by this type of victimization on everyday life of a victim. This objective was achieved via qualitative study based on interviews with four subjects who had reported domestic burglary to the police and four subjects who had not reported its experience to the police. Main findings reveal that victims who report domestic burglary do not experience guilt because of the event, but face challenges when in solitude, become frighten of sounds, sleep and after the event are faced with financial consequences. Furthermore, they experience reduced sense of security at home and this feeling transcends to secondary and public territory, as based in Altman’s theory of territories. While, victims who chose not to report experienced victimization are faced with guilt that sometimes transcends to unmet emotional support needs, due to developed social isolation. These types of victims also face reduced sense of security at home but this fear overlaps with only secondary territory. They also experience the consequences such as financial losses, but other challenges are more related to changes in socialization due to feelings of mistrust of people caused by domestic burglary. Thus, the study shows that people who have experienced domestic burglary with intent of theft experience victimization-induced changes in their sense of security, the emergence of new fears and habits, financial losses, the need for emotional support, and the effects of changes in their socialization, which have an impact on their daily routine and day-to-day functioning.","abstract_html":"Based on research, domestic burglary with intent to commit theft is a crime consisting of an invasion of a person's intimate environment.
