I just dumped my refrigerator Ice Bin into the sink. I'm tired of
getting old Ice from my ice dispenser. After a week or so the ice
picks up an 'old ice' smell or taste. I have it triple filtered so I
don't think that is the problem.

Is there a question here?

If the question is "how to avoid this", I guess "use more ice". Adding a
box of baking soda to the freezer (and replacing it regularly) will help,
too.

You would think that the freezer manufacturers would try to sell us charcoal
air filters to combat smells but they just leave it up to good old baking
soda.

The smells are probably coming from air recirculated from the fridge
compartment. Aside from keeping the fridge clean, you could also make sure
to cover all foods airtite, this will help reduce transferred oders as well.
