Please someone tell me that is true.

Not true for Mayor or Council member.
The Sunshine law allows for removal only if "allowed by law".
Hawaii County Charter only allows for impeachment or recall, not via a crime.
Hawaii Constitution sets out the high crimes for removal and a violation of the Sunshine law is not one of them.
