An electronic device worn on a person's body that records sounds and transmits the playback to a remote receiver. The wire is usually hidden on someone who is trying to get other people to incriminate themselves in conversation. There are usually cops listening to the receiver close by, and once they hear the incriminating evidence, they can run in and make arrests.
Sometimes the "wire" is just a tape recorder (does not transmit).

Wired person: So Frankie, I heard you were behind the cop killing. Am I right?
Frankie: Why do you care? You bugged or something?
Wired person: Naw Frankie, I'm not wired. I'm just curious. Come on Frankie! You can trust me. I won't tell nobody.
Frankie: Alright, alright! Me and Big Tony waited for him at his house. Then when he came home, we gave him a blanket party. But Tony got a little rough and accidentally knocked the mofo's brains out, so we had to bury his body off the freeway by the old farm.
Cops: Police! Freeze sucker! Frank Footer, you're under arrest for the murder of a police officer!
Frankie: Mother fucker! You're wearing a wire? You set me up!
Wired person: Sorry Frankie, I had no choice. (To cop) So now that I served up Frankie, the DA will drop all the charges against me right? I'm free right?
Cop: Ha! Not exactly, since some of your charges fall under Federal jurisdiction. You'll still be spending the next 10 to 20 in a Federal Prison.
Wired person: What?!?!
Cop: Hahaha, don't drop the soap. Take them both away!

In California, there is a Three-Strikes-Law, where a person gets 25 years to life after his/her 3rd felony. So when someone who has already been caught twice gets caught a third time, it's his Third Strike, and he goes to jail for a minimum of 25 years.
COP: Uh oh, what's this I found in your jacket?
GANG BANGER: What the? You planted that!
COP: Shutup! This bag is enough to get you for distribution. That's your third strike esse --and before you're 25-years old! That makes you the goddam rookie of the year!
GANG BANGER: Please dawg, I'll do whatever you want mang, please!
COP: Sign this confession and I'll let you play some extra innings, otherwise I'll throw your ass in county on that third strike!
GANG BANGER: Sheeit, this confession is already filled out!
COP: Sign it bitch!

A citizen of another country (non-US)who provides information and/or services of importance to the CIA. The country's government generally remains unaware that the agent is working with the CIA.
I'm not an agent working for the CIA, I'm an Officer working for the CIA! There's a big difference. An officer is generally a United States citizen trained by the CIA. An agent is just some bozo we hire to backstab his country. They're 2 completely different positions! Now that I've told you this, I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill you.
