When someone says "make an example of somebody," they mean to punish that person particularly harshly in order to show others what will happen if they break the rules. This expression is often used in situations where someone has done something wrong and the punishment needs to be severe to deter others from doing the same thing. For example, a teacher might make an example of a student who cheated on a test by giving them a failing grade and publicly announcing that cheating will not be tolerated.
