I thought if someone is over full retirement age their benefits aren't taxed? 


No, that is a misunderstanding by many people.  Age is not factor for determining when Social Security benefits become taxable on a federal tax return.

See this IRS Publication 915 Social Security and Equivalent Railroad Retirement Benefits page 3 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p915.pdf#page=3
