The purpose of impeaching a person in public office such as the US President or a member of the US Supreme Court is to place the alleged offender on trial. If found guilty, the person is removed from office. Once removed from office the person may be subject to prosecution for any violations of the law. The examples used are high level positions. Throughout the USA there are various impeachable offices. Lower lever Federal judges comes to mind as an example of a lower level impeachment process.
